Debate House Prices
In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non MoneySaving matters are no longer permitted. This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

It got my Mum's house spot on: B06 retired people enjoying pensions from successful careers still living in the house they raised families.
Unfortunately the website can't cope with City addresses so my Barbican place is out.
My last address in the UK is: A02 Influential thought leaders(!) in spacious city homes. A bit odd as it was a town not a city.0 -
I coundn't find a group that covers dark lord and master of the force.0

Don't think my current house or one in the area I want to move to are particularly accurate
Current house : I38 - settled ex-tenants. Older couples whose children have flown the nest working in low-skilled occupations and living in ex-council housing
The only thing that's correct is the ex-council house.....not the ex-tenant, children left and low-skilled occupation
H36 - foot on the ladder. Young singles and couples who have recently bought their first small house which consumes a large proportion of their income
I would quite like to be described as "young single" - unfortunately, more like "middle-aged single"....and likely to consume a large-ish proportion of my single income if my current house ever sells!SPC Member #112 :A Save £2k in 2014 # 160 :money:0 -
We are a B07.
Rather worryingly it got my Irish ethnicity.
I seem to have been short changed on the size of house though. Oh and the Range Rover and Porche.0 -
Me: B05
Mid-Career Climbers are married couples No
aged between 45 and 65. No
Many of them have adult children still living with them at home while they go to university. No
Many of them are highly educated, Yes, I suppose so
and have worked their way into senior managerial positions in professional jobs and in business. No
They work hard, No - I only do half a job
and have felt their social networks dwindling in recent years as they focus more on their partners and children. Sort of
Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -

Our first home:
Type O62: Crash Pad ProfessionalsYoung, well paid, mostly single professionals, who have chosen flats suitable for commuting to urban jobs
Fairly accurate there.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards. I volunteer to help get your forum questions answered and keep the forum running smoothly.

F25 for me.
I do recognise bits of my own household and many of my neighbours (although some bits are wildly wrong).
I just hope that the descriptions " comfortable and unambitious", "very cautious borrowers" and "unspectacular incomes" may reduce the amount of junk mail dropping through my letterbox in future."When the people fear the government there is tyranny, when the government fears the people there is liberty." - Thomas Jefferson0 -
My computer still won't access it, so I had to go downstairs and try my laptop. It worked. It shows me as B09 "Escape to the Country".
Epping Forest has got a lot to answer for. It shows a sickly 30-something family with two kids which is exactly what I came here to avoid! There are some in the cheaper houses over the back, but hardly any down our road. Then there's a picture of a cat. Mrs LM went spare! She hates cats and hoses them down if they dare to come into our garden.
I suspect it's this sort of tripe that dictates what sort of Junk Mail I get.0 -
It got my area spot on, D19. "Stanley and Mollie", lots of retired "innate Conservatives" around, who are not hugely well-off, but like to give a bit back - that kind of thing. Very interesting.0
