    Nice to see things round my way, doing so well
    Glad I topped up my portfolio in early 2009 with a couple of BTLs in Ealing, which is firing ahead well above the inflation rate. Add that to double digit rental price growth, and everyone’s a winner!

    This effort contributes nothing to the debate and if you post material like this when you have good news, heaven help us when the bad news comes. I hope there are no hard objects in your play pen.

    Contributes nothing to the debate??

    Bit rich coming from someone still waiting for the 70% drop by Christmas 2009!

    How's that working out for you?

    :rotfl:

    Glad you agree that rising house prices represents good news though

    The 70% club predictions are based on a long slow decline. Always has been, always will be. If it pleases you to invent stuff, be my guest.

    What has surpised me is the speed that some parts of the country have qualified for the 50% club.
    Property values appear to have halved in a flagship mill redevelopment project in Bradford, as a leading banker warned that predicted interest rate rises could lead to a “tsunami” of mortgage arrears.
