    You could have PMed the OP(s), instead of reviving a number of zombie threads on the matter...

    You could link house prices rises till your fingers bled and he'd still just move the goalposts , ignore, link completely unrelated article etc.

    I don't know why you guys bother engaging with him. I mean, who is so invested in a crash that they call themselves "crashy time" and becoming a running joke (oo a house price thread, how long before crashy rolls in?).

    The sad thing is, eventually there will be a crash/correction (naive to think there ever wont be), and he'll be gloating for years about how "right" he was.
    My work here is done

    Would defeat the purpose of a FORUM though wouldn`t it. Looks like Turkey (or at least it`s leader) is talking us towards another credit crunch as we type, so I doubt this type of thread will be in zombie land for long.

    Did you offer them 2 chewits, a used hanky and a random button? Or is that too pricey for you

    No, there is such a thing as fair value, but how that is measured can change very quickly due to a myriad of reasons outwith our control, many people are starting to realise this now, unfortunately many of them are trying to sell houses :(

    I agree, but it has always been the case people think their house is worth more than it actually is.... But have you realised yet that houses are worth way more than you think they should be worth?
