Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Ah, typo in my earlier post - have corrected. Mind you, only last month the HOA (source of that lovely bit of churnalism you linked) were triumphing crossrail, promoting property ownership as a source of longevity and admitting that no-one knows what Brexit will hold.
So yeah, anyone can find a link from somewhere which upholds their point of view.0 -
