    Maidstone Prices - average reductions at 8.5% (£19,668) Feb 2012 - We thought the dudes were not allowed to drop prices?

    This bit of MSE should be renamed 'Debate House Price Crash, and perhaps other stuff if anyone can be a*sed'.

    Or rather:

    "Debate HousePriceCrash.co.uk".

    The guy is absolutely obsessed.

    Oh, he'll have found one person saying they are revising their outlook.

    That's then applied to a whole forum and every single poster on there.

    That then gets him so excited he comes over to let us all know he's about to make a little mess, would anyone like to join him in a mutual tug.

    Who says I believe that rubbish?

    I just said the prediction was still there, not that I thought it (or anything else on the website) was correct.

    Never mind eh ... you'll learn to read one day....

    Oh dear. All I did was report that a website that tracks and comments on house price forecasts from well known established experts such as Capital Economics had recently removed their own forecast.

    I didn't even gloat about how completely and utterly wrong they got it.

    Looks like there's a lot of people upset over it though.

    There are no numbers because... I'll say it slowly as you obviously missed it in the wall of text in the OP.

    They. Have. Deleted. It.
