BBC: Scottish Property Prices Reach All Time High

geneer

Hey, getting on topic, or at least back on to the topic of certain mentalists obsessive compulsions to "prove" that one months stats are more relevant than the next to a lone poster on an internet forum, did you know that the BANK OF ENGLAND apply a 3 month lag when comparing Land Reg data to Haliwide stats. But what do they know right?

And hey, do you know that its generally regarded that the Haliwide stats lag by six weeks. i.e. the time it generally takes to go from verbal offer to mortgage approval. :cool:

Now I'm no stephen hawking, but adding all that up comes to about 4 and a half months. :A

Interesting.

Yes. Simply posting again and again the fact that you have no interest in men. This has been noted. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:





Yet the evidence show's you're the one with a steely determination to prove.....erm...what exactly? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:



Given the facts, its clearly not a joke.
Is it babe?




yawn.



Why didn't you add the trend line from 1602.
That will prove your case. :laugh:

A trend from 1602 is irrelevant.
There's also no data from 1602

Your posts are hugely desperate with all sorts of your personal fantasies to try and deflect from the truth.
I'm sure it's making you happy, else you wouldn't go to such great lengths to ignore the obvious facts.

I'm starting to feel really sorry for you now, maybe your doing this to make yourself feel a lot better.
All the best geneer, I hope you get the help you so badly need

Wasn't this already discussed in relevance to the ROSEA facts?

Nothing to see here. Hamish as always is correct. House Prices in Scotland like the rest of the UK are racing ahead. It's happy days again.

Got any examples?

Theres a nice graph above (figures taken from the Register of Scotland Executive Agency) that shows that Scotland has pretty much stagnated for the last three years.

No racing ahead and certainly no crashes.

Well laughter is good medicine, and deconstructing your foaming obsessive efforts are certainly good for a laugh.

Thanks again for confirming how long it takes for the ROS to process info from date of entry (i.e. completion).
Though as both the ROS and landreg log the date of completion with no congicance of how long the postie takes, this doesn't appear to be the decisive blow you think it is. Yet again.

So 4.5 months from verbal offer eh.

Gosh.
Even if, in the extraordinarily unlikely event I had put in an offer in december 2005...guess which quarter of 2006 would be relevant. :T

If your that slow, no wonder you can't get a property.

Honestly, in my experience, decent properties in Scotland go to closing date within a couple of weeks from being marketed.

Then they complete in about 4 weeks. (*NOTE* that's 4 weeks from offer), then take a couple of weeks to get to the ROSEA

So your only talking about 6 weeks.

Maybe that the difference. Most of us look at decent properties, while your scraping around at the bottom waiting for that elusive budget property that always seems to go before you even think to get your finger out of your hoop (do you like what I did there, you'll be creaming yourself at my metafore)

Hamish told everyone price were going to BOOM. Did they listen? No, of course not. That's why they're still sleeping with bed bugs in their rented flats while Hamish is lording it in his mansion in the Scottish Highlands.

Hardly
