Its looking like im buying outright so will have no mortgage.

If i ever want to move up the ladder, i hope my house price plummets.

So you're happy to save up over several years to the value of say £150k and then perhaps see £50k drop off the value? LOL, yeah right.

Just give up Linda, there are many on here that just do not understand the concept of being a decent human being

Well, at least no-one is bringing over-the-top emotional arguments to this thread.

Hoping isn't the same as planning.

As you are so sanguine about houses falling in price after purchase then using my example why not use your £100,000 cash as a deposit and buy the £150,000 house. Job done.

That's a strange concept of 'decent' where you're happy to see thousands of hard working families end up with the misery of negative equity and lose thousands of pounds on what might be their only asset and might represent the entirety of their savings. Still, as long as you get a cheap home, huh hlsw?

There's two sides to the over-the-top emotional argument coin.

I’m not sure how people can complain about houses prices being high if they can afford to buy outright.

I own my house outright and do not particularly want to see prices fall I would be quite happy if they stagnate for a few years bringing the price down in real terms. But as much as I would like it to be easier for younger people to buy I wouldn’t want to see people who bought in the last few years suffer.

That's interesting. Why did I make the list?

I think your concern chip is only concerned about one person.

Don't take it personally. I'm on the list and so is Joeskeppi. Foxy took the hump when it was pointed out he was arguing against things that neither of us had said.
