Actually Joesnappi, if I'd started looking at the end of 2007, reasonably we might assume 3 months to find a suitable property and put in an offer.

If you assume it takes 3 months to find a suitable property then maybe you need to look at your researching skills.
It doesn't take that long to assess the current market and view the available properties in your criteria.
If your taking 3 months, then your likely to be left with the lower end of the scale in terms of quality properties.

Quality properties are still being sold relatively quickly

It can take it's time of course (if you fail to find a suitable property or have been outbid on others) and I guess it's further restricted by the supply at present, thus reducing the options you have.

Whatever floats your boat.
Strange kinks some people have nowadays

Average Time on Market (ToM) in Edinburgh*: 174 days.

Yes. A little research before flapping one's mouth is definitely a worthwhile endevour.

Yeah. Like becoming bonkers obsessed over when some random poster on an internet forum might have bought a house. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Strannnnnnnnnnge indeed.

Like I said, it's your personal research, not the Edinburgh average.
I'm sure even you can understand that good properties sell quickly and crap properties fester on the "for sale".

That's the thing about "time on market" it's irrelevant to your personal input into the market.

A property could be on the market for 365 days and you pop in, have a look around and decide to make an offer.
It has nothing to do with how long the property is on the market, it;s on how long you take to get your finger out

Your strange fettish with me (and you other so called Geneer Gals)has nothing to do with me.
I've tried distancing myself from your flirtation.

It's your fettish, you live with it.

P.S. I do like it now you've stopped blowing me kisses, calling me darling and the likes. I'm not homophobic but prefer those kind keep themselves to themselves.

Have a Happy New Year Geneer, hope your house hunting in 2011 goes better than 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 & 2010

Sorry, but the record reflects babe.
And here you are "distancing" yourself from me yet again.
I'm like the bull-whisperer!

We could never have guessed.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:And my personal research shows that on average properties spent 174 days on the market?
Something you appeared to have no clue about.
But nice smokescreening.

Hey, before you yapped away, did you also notice that those "crap" 5 bedroom 1/2 million mansions "festered" for 209 days on the market?
Or that all property types of all costs are pretty much sitting, on average, for the same length of time.
Didn't think so. Should have done your "personal research" :T

Does rather suggest that you're little "could've bought in a week" fantasy is just that.
Something an embittered gal pulled from her puckered posterior for no reason other than because she so desperately wanted/needed it to be true.
Thats love for you! Stops you thinking straight* :heartpuls
