Not quite; sales are going through below the asking price and frequently below the previous asking price, this is especially true at the lower end of the market (i.e. not mansions in London).

On the contrary ... I am witnessing the figures from RightMove.

Like it or loathe it - if you haven't bought yet, you are starting to look very, very, silly!!

I have bought, but it is still you who are silly.

Against the rules and you should be banned for such breaches.

Well done Percy.

What the doomers also seem to ignore is that restricted lending conditions in the past 3-4 years means an increasing number of FTB's with a decent deposit now entering the market.
They talked to their bank in 2010 with a 5% deposit and the bank said 'no'. They went back to the bank in 2012 with 20% deposit and the doors open wide now. Good news :T

ok dude that old chestnut of "2012 will see a wave of ftb with huge deposits"

thing is Mr ree its all in your head

This is truly great news .. it means that the FTB's have now saved up the required deposits and are out there buying!!

Utterly wonderful that the FTB's can realise the dream of owning their own home .. we can all REJOICE in that, surely?

An active, strong, housing market is just what the doctor ordered to get the economy going again.

If your house price goes up 5% in a month - say, £8,000 on average - then you are MUCH more likely to buy that new car, that new kitchen, that new suite and carpet ... it all knocks onto a brilliant 2012!!

I do agree there is going to be a steady stream of FTBs making it now, but I don't think we will get to the same numbers as we did with the old system, so I don't think we will see the free for all which pushed prices up again.

You have been reported accordingly, by two seperate posters.

Expect a reprimand.
