Not as boring as listening to the "I've made so much money on property in the last 10 years, you should invest in property"...
Not as boring as the endless property programs on daytime TV.
Not as boring as various posters telling me that my property will be worthless come the crash.0 -

Who told you your property will be "worthless"?

Both extremes are equally tedious.
I'm somewhere in the middle, being a recent buyer, but someone who also thinks that prices are unrealistically high.
A trend I have noticed is for even mild questioning of house prices to receive semi-abusive replies from a small band of people who are determined that prices must not be questioned in any case. It strikes me that a certain mindset is present; one of fear. Allied with this is the hope that by shouting the loudest then their expectations will become true.Happy chappy0 -

Its not me who is predicting the fututre. Surely the tealeaf readers are the HPC lot. They have been predicting the future for years now ( and been wrong ever since) I take it, it is these people who are thanking you for your ridiculous post. I base my opinions only on what I see and I see no crash.0 -
