    FTB, you're getting caught by the usual tactic that the ghetto HPCers - trying to take away the focus of thread away from it's initial point because they don't like it.

    but let's get back onto the original point - Repossessions are due to go up in 2011, they're due to go up by only 4,000 to 40,000.

    It should be pointed out that Graham does occasionally 'bore' readers on forums other than this particular one. ;)

    You just have two browser windows, one for you and one for rewired to thank you posts afterwards.

    In other words they're going to remain flat, around the 40k mark.

    Pretty encouraging given the turmoil a lot of people have had to face over the past two years.

    Its quite sad. He/she didn't like your OP so they resort to slagging off your post count.

    pretty much 4,000 more repo's will have very little effect on house prices, despite deliberately missing the key information on this thread - good news for people struggling and bad news for some 'people' on this forum.

    never mind - they'll be another bad news story they'll selectively post a thread about soon...

    Exactly, ZERO effect on Land registry reported figures as they EXCLUDE repossessions.
