Would it be anything to do with the fact that both yourself and Renoman paid top buck for your properties?

Not for me.

Anecdote time - one of my colleagues has just accepted an offer on his property which he bought at the peak, with a slight profit. It was on the market for 10 days.

Well there are always going to be exceptions to the norm.

Have I? :think:

You seem to know an awful lot about me with no real evidence, shortchanged. For instance, what was my house marketed at?

Some evidence you do have though is that I bought in May 2010. Now remind me, was that before or after the housing crash?

I am on the mailing lists of various Estate Agents in my area (Boston, Lincolnshire) - and I a noticing that a lot, a lot of the property details that come through are being sold with "No Onward Chain".

I also notice the same thing in the local property pages - and on rightmove.

What do you think the reason is behind this? More and more homeowners defaulting on their mortgages? Or perhaps Landlords trying to cash in on the lettings boom and getting their fingers burned?
