In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned.

    To sell your house, you need to offer a unique selling proposition, something only your property provides. This could be location [schools, transport, amenities, countryside] or facilities [rooms, conservatory, garden garage, workshop, games room] or opportunities [renovation potential, extension potential, move in and no maintenance for 5 years].

    In a slow property market with an ordinary house, you may not have a unique selling proposition intrinsic to the property, so all you have left is the price to create teh unique selling proposition of the only house with this space at this price for miles around.

    You don't know the first thing about the property market twit1234.

    You famously predicted a house price correction of 50% from peak by Christmas 2009.

    Your inarticulate rants get ripped to pieces over on the Debate House Prices board, so you've come over here to spread your poison.

    Pathetic
    less rant and more reason? I take it you think the market is rising if you don't agree with brit - there is a prediction to be made.
