Yeah. The fact the valuation has gone up £25k in two years is rather pleasant, to be frank even if the price had gone down £25k I wouldn't be overly concerned.Crashy_Time wrote: »Just like you did?

To be honest there's been no real house movement in this immediate area as people seem to have bought the houses when they were built and stayed put. Only house price with a house of similar size was next door last year and it was £220,000. I really like this house and I'm really not wanting to lose it but on the other hand I feel like this.. I'm quite a worrier and stresser so don't know if I'm over thinking this.
Nobody really knows what will happen with house prices. If you love the house and can see yourself living there long term then buy it. More is lost to indecision than bad decision.0 -

Problem with that notion is that the UK economy has been all about house prices for years, and you can see people posting on here about not having a few grand to fix a roof, or wailing because they can`t afford to drop their price by 5K or something, so a loss of 25k would certainly be catastrophic for some people.0 -
If nobody else is interested, there's nothing to stop you offering under.
Pick a thread from say every six months on here regarding house prices (easy enough to find I should imagine). They all say the same thing. There is always something to cause concern. You'll struggle to find one saying 'BUY NOW NOW NOW! THE TIMING COULDN'T BE MORE PERFECT AND YOU'LL MAKE A FORTUNE'.
