To sum up.
London + SE = UP.
Rest = stagnating

This is so true here in sunny Oldham its -1.9% mom and -7.4% yoy.
Like many others the national situation is of little interest to me, I am keeping a check on local prices as I intend to buy locally.
I will be buying sooner rather than later at this rate. :beer:

Yep. That's pretty much it.
As such, given I own a flat in London, a house in Kent and and am hoping for a low valuation on a property in the North East for CGT purposes - I could not be happier with the LR right now!Go round the green binbags. Turn right at the mouldy George Elliot, forward, forward, and turn left....at the dead badger0 -

Could you explain on that low valuation/CGT thing? Surely if its valued at a lower price and you pay less CGT then that's a bad thing overall. If you own a property in the North East I would imagine you could be happier with the LR if they said that property in the North East was booming.0 -

It's a bit complex - 4 of us are about to come into ownership of a large property and want to rent it out. CGT will be due (it was in trust since the mid 80's ) so at this point the lower the value the better.
I appreciate in general terms with assets, the value increasing will be a better thing. But right at this point in time, I would be very happy if the value was deemed 50% less than 2007!Go round the green binbags.
