I challenge you to find one of these "shoots" and bring it back here. All I can see is starving pandas.

Like I said the other day, EA friend of mine now has FTB buying and has completed a perfect chain.
All the scaremongering is not working, FTB are now wising up and are jumping in before they miss out again.
GB will sort out the other small problems in the economy and you then watch them all fly off the shelves.

But didn't ARLA say rents had fallen by 9%. :rotfl:





Bradford & Bingley's share price says differently as where as the percentage of but to lets at auction.:rotfl:

So the ARLA know what I charge in rent?
only the renter and the tax man knows what I charge.
What are but to lets?

Yeap, because there isn't a credit crunch or anything.:eek:

You really don't seem to understand do you.

House prices can't rise with credit getting harder and more expensive. It is impossible.

On top of that FTB need deposits and they take time to raise.

You fully know we are in a big down turn, you aren't that deluded. There is no way you will be able to convince others unless you evidence your argument and we have seen little or no evidence.

Your position is so weak no one is going to buy it unless you bulls start stepping up a number of gears.

I thought you lot !!!!!!?, neas etc already have huge deposits or was that another one of your lies?

this is a difficult thing for you to grasp pickles

but a poster on here is an individual whether bull or bear. You cannot extrapolate their unique situation to cover the entire market.

it's thus possible for brit1234 to refer to FTB's other than himself, when making a general comment.

I do have a large deposit but I have a degree in risk management so I could clearly see that the rapid rises in the housing market being unsustainable. Hence I have saved hard for many years to get deposit. However a large proportion of the public have been caught off guard due to the rapid change. Remember that there were 125% mortgages less than a year ago, now the best you can get is a 95% and these are becoming rarer.

As for the Lies comment, that rich coming from Mr Greenshoots.

neas

most people haven't decided to get 'clued up' about house prices and some .... still believe people like you who try to 'calm' the market...

A friend at work has bought a house.... moving in tomorrow. He figured even if he was in negative equity./... he could still sell (with the negative equity) and transfer the extra to the new property (making it a 1XX% mortgage).

I informed him today this was impossible... then he got pretty quiet... i like the guy, he is a mate.. He is moving from paying 350 pound a month rent... to paying 650 pound a month fixed rate mortgage on a small 2 bedroom house. He knew that prices were 'dropping' but still believe its just a blip.... and risked alot.

Joe Bloggs... hasn't got a clue whats coming and believes people like yourself or is in denial.... this means alot of people are in for some hurt.

And yea I have saved a deposit... about 25% of my intended purchase price :P. Im thinking a 20-30% drop bringing a 3 bed house to 100k.. ofc i will make this call in a year and a half time :P... When my deposit is 30% :P

More drivel.

I think there are some really great debates which happen on these forums where people state their opinions and then back it up with some substance. It's really interesting to see the constrast between the various views and many people argue their point very well.

However, it appears that you are incapable of posting anything of any substance, with the self admittance that you post simply to oppose those that you don't agree with. The fact that you spend your time posting rubbish like this to get a rise out of people displays alot about your character.

It's a pity that forums have to be diluted by people such as yourself, whether you agree with people like !!!!!! or not (and I don't necessarily fully agree with them either) at least they back up their posts with some intelligence.
