in fairness the very very worst seems to be over for oil prices so the same may be true of HPs.

Seeing property for sale at asking prices well below 2007 still. It has to turn around eventually.

Citylets Q2 info has average rents up 3% on Q1, maybe Aberdeen has hit the bottom?

Overall Scotland average rent is up 3% quarter on quarter.

Yep, prices and rents in a 30 month long (so far) crash/bear market. All standards of property affected. ASPC saying prices will continue to fall though the whole of 2017.


Aberdeen will return, when the oil price returns. It is a matter of when not if imo, but it could be quite a while. When will oil get back up to $60 again let alone $100?

I doubt oil will ever go high again, were close to an electric car tipping point / revolution and fracking technology will pull more and more oil out.

The big cities will be clean of petrol cars by 2030. Those places will become more sought after. London is facing a massive no pollution draw card coming its way.

Aberdeen might be another Liverpool.

Curious as to how Aberdeen gets its own thread over Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow, Cardiff etc :huh:

Old MSE property bull Hamish owns personal house their and crashy needs to feel vindicated after a lifetime of stupidly renting.

Crashy still doesn't understand that after 25 years the ups and downs of property prices don't matter because you then own the property outright.

Aberdeen continues to register year on year price falls (-3.0%). House prices in Aberdeen have been registering negative annual growth for exactly 2 years. Average house prices are 16% lower since December 2014 as the fall in oil prices impacted the economy.

No, I live in Wiltshire. Originally bought in 1997 in Oxfordshire, sold and rented for a while 08-12 and then bought again.
