    And the point of this thread is? And the value of any of the posts on it, this one included? When was the last time there was actually any sensible descussion of the economy and the issues realating to the housing market in this board? I just do not understand.
    Unfortunately its pantomime season and at the moment most threads seem to embrace this,

    "Oh yes it is!" "Oh no it isn't"
    A number of pantomime villains, a dame or two (and you might even come across the ugly sisters/sockies).
    Some threads are definitely Wishee Washee.

    As for a double dip recession or house price crash - well look out. Its behind you.

    LOL I know what you mean. Geneer is showing an astonishing lack of self awareness by ruining his bear meme by having bought a house at the bottom of the crash, via hindsight time machine.

    Furious sour grape bleating from the peanut gallery as expected.

    Of course all prepared for.

  • buying and renting out property is a risky business if interest rates go up btl landlords and homeowners with a tenuous grasp of maths will become unstuck.

    Let's hope he gets the tenants he deserves.

    The cocky landlord round my way has definitely got the tenant he deserves.

    The tenant has told him he wont be paying any rent increases, and he doesnt want to hear about any rent increases for his other tenants.

    The landlord is too scared of this tenant to do anything about it.

    You paint a very nice picture of what it is like to live in the Northwest makes me very glad I live in the Southeast. But then again I suppose it might not be as bad as you make out.

    I could make something up for you to make my estate sound wonderful if you like.

    The north west has thousands upon thousands of drug dealers, i could have a word at the docks to tell them to sort it out if you like.

    Must be a wannabe drug dealer/gangster if he can't afford his own place and has to rent :rotfl:
