Debate House Prices


In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

    You said Rewired thanked my post.


    I am telling you that rewired did not thank my post.


    I think you'll find that I am right and you are wrong.

    Don't think so.

    rewired is one of the brightest and most valuable contributors to this forum.


    Rewired, however, is a shallow, half-witted imposter.

    Land Registry says that there were circa 50k sales in August whereas we have been provided other data which shows the figure to be 78k:

    Even allowing for the fact that LR are a bit laggy and that they don't include Scotland this seems like quite a big difference.

    Why?

    Cash sales & new builds perhaps as both are not in the LR data.

    Yes, I thought that was what he meant until he said "I am telling you that rewired did not thank my post".

    Oh, I see he moved in to edit his mistake but too late, I had already quoted him. ;)

    Pimpernel, did you stick the funny mushrooms in your mushroom omelette today? You are quoting and babbling on to yourself, while winking back at yourself and finding yourself somewhat amusing.
