House prices will be down for September...

because I'm bored.

Purely anecdotal evidence that I've lost interest in the House Buying board again; because there's nothing to answer; it's full of unhappy tenants, the number of 'I can't sell my house' threads is up again and there's not much in the way of 'building regs certification' 'FENSA' 'help, what does my survey mean' and 'what do I offer' threads.

When I'm bored of the board prices go down ;) There should be a doozerometer.

I've got stuff hitting the market in four weeks. Joy.

    Most people reading this are wondering who I am.

    There's a board here for people who buy houses. I'm over there a bit sometimes. ;)

    So do you think it is part of a trend ...or just a blip ?
  • This board is even more repetitive than the house buying one.

    Every day is groundhog day.
  • I assume you don't live in Aberdeen?

    It's a doozerometer. It just measures current sentiment.

    It doesn't predict - you need a different machine for that task. A Crystal Ball. :)

    I just wondered how concerned you are as you mention you have a property going to market soon.
    And if you are concerned, is it enough to change the way you do your business ?

    It's raining today so nobody is going to be out buying houses, sellers will need to drop prices.
