Your stagnating is everyone else's falling. I suppose if you compare 2004 prices to 2012 then yes prices are stagnating. Before 2004 then rising and any year after 2004 falling.
I would like a 3 index fall but there is always one that bucks the trend till the following month. The one with a slight rise I also predict that all the bulls will latch on as evidence that prices will boom. So I am going to say 2 down one up.:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.

Linky? (although I still wouldn't buy one - they'd have to pay me to take it on and even then I'd need to know that it wouldn't end up costing me because no-one else would pay their maintenance costs).
I dont know how to do links and i wouldnt put one anyway.
I wouldnt buy one of the flats either.0 -
