PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. 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.

No Crashy - sentiment is that you're still the village idiot.

London prices bouncing back... The problem with Crashy and his HPC fools is they ignore or dismiss any article that says prices are rising and hail any article saying they are falling as the sign of the MASSIVE crash they have been foretelling.
Crashy stop posting links in this section of the forum its not relevant to the original posts question, if you want to debate house prices go to the debate house prices section and leave this section for useful comments... Nobody takes you seriously...0 -

"The relatively modest nature of the price fall contrasts sharply with the annual figure of -6.7%":rotfl:
Your link has absolutely nothing to do with the OP and FTB`ers though, unless they are bidding for prime London property

Your the one that keeps hijacking posters threads and posting irrelevant links you muppet.
No my post doesn't thats the whole point, go to the debate house prices section if you want to debate house prices... Everyone is bored of your stupid irrelevant links.0 -
Calling someone a fool, a muppet, AND a village idiot (a village with very high and very sustainable house prices no doubt
) isn`t being very nice to money savers I`m afraid
But let`s face it guys, most sensible people know that falling house prices mean more and more money savers can save even more of their hard earned money:money: 0 -
Funny thing is, Crashy is yet to post the link of the main index which is the most reliable - ONS Land reg house growth report, which shows an annual increase of 5.1pc in house prices across the UK. I!!!8217;ll give him the pleasure of posting the link.0

If the shoe fits...
You need to look at all reports or non-biased reports such as the land registry.. If you take that approach you will see that in the last year house prices have broadly increased by a modest amount.. It is best to look at yearly figures as it gets rid of the peaks (summer) and troughs (winter) that are common in the housing market...
Time will tell but any speculation one way or another would be a wild guess, my thoughts are in the next 12 months we could see anything from a small rise to a small fall but it is unlikely to see major swings either way unless something dramatic happens as there are not enough forces one way or the other.
The reason you are called a muppet and village idiot is because just like the HPC lot you have made your mind up a crash is coming and you are looking only for evidence that backs up your conclusion, ignoring all other evidence. That is not the way to arrive at a sensible conclusion.0 -

Can you post up the sales volume link first?0 -

So what do we call someone (you) who seems to be claiming an edge when it comes to interest rates, a guru? :rotfl: You have no idea what will happen with Brexit/Other EZ countries/U.S/China etc. The problem many on here have is that they are biased by the big property loans they have already taken out, but this doesn`t mean that their advice that others should do the same is sound
Only someone very blinkered would deny that there has been a massive shift in market expectation and the media tone on property, and sentiment is one of the main drivers of the property market, along with easy credit, Oh and low rates.........:) 0
