The property market's early warning signs are flashing red
But if you talk about the truth here then you are shunned even banned.
I don’t see why lower property prices and rents are not welcome subject’s on a money saving forum
You have to pretend as if we are going back to normal again soon and prices will not fall0 -

Boris needs to launch this bonkers lending scheme pronto, before sentiment turns and people start taking cheaper housing for granted.0 -

Too much data in the annexes for me to look at on my phone. But initial scroll through my thoughts are that lenders think next few months will be bleak. Mortgages get bit more expensive. Must keep in mind the update to furlough/JRS was after the report.
Looks like we're in unpredictable times, if that's news to anyone, but will enjoy a proper analysis of the data later.0 -

If your point is "There are serious economic problems and I believe that house prices will come down as a result", then yes, I tend to agree. I'd say there's about a 50% chance of houses coming down more than 5% in my area in 2021. But that's just an guess, I don't actually know because it's you know, the future.
But you seem to have crossed some mental rubicon and now believe with 100% certainty that some kind of significant price crash will happen soon, which of course you can't possibly know for sure. And why the determination to keep banging the drum? I don't care much whether other people agree with me or not because it's just speculation anyway -- why do you seem to care so much?

You don't, you have little insight and poor instincts.I'm sure you'll make a trite response dressed as a question to give the attention you want, you always do.0
