You've just described yourself.

Lol. Expect lots more 'why won't my house sell' threads on the buying and selling forum. 'the price is right cos the estate agent said so innit!'
Can't say I'm surprised, or bothered by this as miles says 'this will just mean they won't sell and end up accepting an even lower price than if the they priced realistically in the first place'
Read the report. Very very bearish. Also as I've said before, even when this index is falling, it's highly erratic and pretty much meaningless with little effect on sale prices. Even Hamish agrees with that.Debt Is Slavery.0 -
Property asking prices in England and Wales rose for the first time in four months in October, with sellers responding to seasonal pressures instead of market fundamentals, a survey showed Monday. Property website Rightmove, which says it captures 90 percent of all homes for sale, said asking prices jumped 3.1 percent this month, following drops of 1.1 percent in September and 1.7 percent in August.
The annual rate of growth in prices rose 2.9 percent from 2.6 percent in September.
http://www.iii.co.uk/news/?type=reutersnews&articleid=TRE69G1T9&feed=Bus&action=articleLondon home sellers raised asking prices by the most in six months in October as owners across the U.K. brushed off the challenges posed by the biggest fiscal squeeze since World War II, Rightmove Plc said. Average asking prices in the capital increased 5 percent from September to 418,778 pounds ($671,301), the most since February, the operator of Britain’s biggest property website said in a report published in London today. Across the U.K., prices rose 3.1 percent to 236,849 pounds.

It's a useless measure but what's interesting about it is that you never hear anecdotals from property bee users when asking prices have gone up. Just the odd one that's been reduced.0

I think that's because when a house is listed it very rarely increases in asking price, whereas asking prices get knocked down even during boom times.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
