The usual Crashy BS, house prices were only just starting to recover in 2012. A year or three after that they took off.More than it cost in 2012. Hopefully the OP will be round to tell us at some point soon.Its hard to generalise areas, but round here (central SE) prices are probably 40-50% above 2012.
I'm talking selling prices. .... "LOL"Sure, look at Reading. Look at RG41 if you want to get close to my area. Thats where I've bought and sold since 2007.Bought at 200 sold at 250 in 2014 (after an estimated low of 150 around 2010) by 2018 houses in same road were going for 300 they are now around 300k. House prices here have been flat the last couple years.So, that house I sold at 250 in 2014 would have been maybe 200 in 2012 (eg back to where i bought it 5 years previously to that)0 -

and then in 2015 you were saying the same thing about sales in 2016
and and and and
This year it’s different though I guess.

If you look at sales from 2015 you will see that I was of course accurate in my predictions, but for HPI lovers they are still right if only ten houses sell in the whole country for bubble money, right? LOL.0 -

Try E4. Many nearly doubled from 2012 to now.

Can`t see a mini bubble in E4 making much difference to the wider picture TBH.
What's funny is the only person who seems to care about prices is you 🤣 As many of us have said, WE DON'T BLOODY CARE! We're just bored of you going on about the same subject for years and years 🙄2024 wins: *must start comping again!*10 -

LOL.every year there’s always something that you can latch on to as to why things will go down the toilet.
And as you have demonstrated in one of those years you’ll get it vaguely in the right ball park and wooo you’ve hit the jackpot.
Except you forget all the other years you got it so badly wrong and prices kept going up, other people bought houses, and your HPC hopes and dreams took another kick in the nuts.2 -
