How dumb is this sad waste of space starting new accounts with virtually the same name? Does he not realise that it gives the game away? The thickest troll ever.

There we go. Earlier this year was a blip caused by the stamp duty holiday ending. As expected the downwards movement has resumed and it is now setting new lows.

"Approvals for home loans in Britain rose unexpectedly in March, suggesting the housing market continued to recover despite the end of a tax exemption for first-time buyers, Bank of England data showed on Wednesday. "

Seems to contradict what you're saying.

No contradiction at all, merely different spin on the same data.

8 month low speaks more than anything else. The stamp duty holiday end has continued the stall in the market. You do know the holiday ended on the 24th March? This coincides with the rise earlier this year through to the end of March. Following this the market has resumed its fall.

If you want a slightly longer term view on this:

Select 5Y to the top right of the graph and you will get a graph of UK mortgage approvals for the past 5 years as measured by the Bank of England.

Thanks. Completely contradicts AndyGuil's opinion again. You could argue that approvals have been rising since 2009 or stagnating since 2010.

Nothing to suggest that "the market has resumed its fall".
