    MSE bears laugh off persimmon's claim that house prices will rise.

    Wednesday:
    Halifax report house prices rising 1.2% in June.

    Wednesday:
    Rinoa also doesn't notice that Persimmon didn't said that house prices would rise.

    I think more to the point, they arnt selling, so it doesnt really make any difference.

    Yeah, but if they manage to increase the price by 10% on the one house out of 100 they did sell, well average prices will have increased 10%

    This is what I dont understand. Ok, so Sibley and Hamish own multiple properties each

    In Hamises case a house he bought in 2007 and a wee granny flat one of his ageing relatives is living in rent free.
    Hamish is a legend in his own mind, but a property baron he ain't.
