    It's recently dawned on me that we've gone full circle.

    When I first started posting here it was about the imminent crash. Then there was a crash, and now there's a recovery and people are back talking about an imminent crash.

    What's werid is, those that wanted a crash are in the exact same position as they were originally. Those that were destined to be made bankrupt and lose their house have all made out like bandits.

    I wonder what lessons will be learnt in the next cycle.

    Who's talking about an iminent crash?

    What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.

    No going back now. Prices will have to continue to tick up until the election.

    Good news for hard working families in negative equity and those trying to get cheaper mortgages with higher LTVs. :)

    Not good news for Graham_Devon's plans to pick up a cheap home, off the back of a hard working family's repossession nightmare. :(

    And there we go. Straight in with the beastliness.

    No one, but it makes a good soundbite.

    You don't actually learn anything from this, do you?

    Why don't you simply answer the question.

    Do we have a housing bubble or are current prices sustainable without the stimulus?

    No we don't have a bubble.
