House prices going up?

I have been watching the market for a few months and using Property Bee it looks like a lot of houses in the area we are looking are static or going down.
We had seen a house that we was going to arrange to view a few months back that has come back on the market, with a £25k increase :eek:
Do you think there just trying out the market again now there sale has fallen through?
I can't provide a link as I'm just getting used to the new Mac and don't know how to cut and paste web addresses, but it's for sale via David Lee in Stanstead, 3 bed detached Nr Elsenham if anyone want to put a link.

I have seen lots of price increases since the beginning of the year - one of which I viewed before the repo agents added another 31K onto the advertised price.0 -
They can ask what they want. Doesn't mean prices are going up because it won't sell.Debt Is Slavery.0

I can understand if a repo has been valued higher if they had a lot of interest. But a house that's been on the market for 3 months to have £25k added seems like a marketing ploy. I suspect that it may have a "new price" sign up in a week or so.Milliewilly wrote: »I have seen lots of price increases since the beginning of the year - one of which I viewed before the repo agents added another 31K onto the advertised price.0 -

Maybe the dead body under the bed on picture 9 is worth a few bob?
Or the dead shark on the bathroom floor?3.9kWp solar PV installed 21 Sept 2011, due S and 42° roof.

That's not a shark, it's a blue whale, so it would only be worth a couple of grand. An as for the body, well don't most houses have them under at least one bed?BornAtTheRightTime wrote: »Maybe the dead body under the bed on picture 9 is worth a few bob?

Perhaps it was thought to have lost value when originally marketed, due to the impending Stansted 2nd runway.
Now that the 2nd runway is on hold/cancelled, that lost value is being re-added..?
Lovely house. Move it 20-30 miles from Stansted...0
