Then clear off and listen to some Cliff Richard. Or are you a forum masochist who can't help but read these nasty threads?

You can resurrect a FOUR year old thread, and ask there!

How did you find this thread!?

I'm from Clapham. And prices aren't rising. I've seen some new flats down the road being left vacant for 6 months.

Amazing how many people have been so wrong on house prices for so long.

hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I am more amazed that so many people have been so right for so so so long ... in 2003 I first heard the predictions of doom about a house price crash and wow, after only 4-5 years of significant growth their predictions came true. I think it is spookily uncanny how accurate the doom-mongers were .. especially since after another year of growth they predicted the fall for the following year, and then the following, and then despite another year of growth they still predicted it for the following year and then incredibly it finally came true .. and they are now all sitting back with a stupid smug look on their faces saying 'told you so' (such predicitve powers are only equalled by someone saying 'tomorrow will be another day').

So I am going to be a bit of a rebel and predict rises in prices ..... in the next 4-5 years or so (you do however have to totally ignore what happens between now and my prediction coming true).
