Wednesday 13th July 2011
A total of 85,104 properties on the market had their prices cut last month, according to the property search engine Home.

This was 15% more than in June last year.

The website, which takes its data from almost every estate agency website and portal in the UK, also reports that properties are now taking 113 days to sell – 13 days longer than a year ago.

Asking prices have started to show signs of coming down. They are 0.8% lower than a year ago, and 1.1% lower than six months ago.

The website predicts a further slide in asking prices over the rest of this year.

    Wouldn't be quite so embarrassing is you hadn't provided the last comment on the thread.

    If they were at unrealistic levels (thanks to the EA's), then they'd have to be cut to get a bite.

    I'm happy he lives in a bedsit. I wish I owned it. I'd jack his rent up.

    There will be some people in Edinburgh KFC getting a bit of rough service once Gimpere has read this thread.

    Sorry wrong site (its the other one where they all crowd around you and pat you on the back no matter how obscene or nonsensical your posts are). Sense this doesn't make.

    I dont know if its the case on here but on other forums, excessive use of the :rotfl: is compared unfavourably to the bore at a party laughing uproariously at his own jokes while everyone else looks at their feet in embarrassment and start making a move towards the door. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    If it were not so very offensive I would post some comments that Gimpere made on the other site which the bear Mods didn't even consider the removal of (although happy to PM them). He is a bitter and twisted individual (with good reason to be so). :(
