If they went back to 2013 prices it would be not be a tragedy. Be interesting to see how far they fall, because they will keep falling
But what about Scotland I hear you ask? Similar, average is down £7,709 in the past year (3.88%), but up £9,268 over five years (5.11%). https://www.zoopla.co.uk/house-prices/browse/scotland/?q=Scotland
Uncertainty arose the day we voted to leave which was 3 years ago, so it’s not that. It’s the prospect of a no deal Brexit which has arisen since March that’s the driver. This suits me just fine. I sold my house ages ago and have been waiting for this to happen.
Why? People still need to live somewhere so until they start building enough in places where people want to live there will be a shortage and that pushes prices up not down.
Just to show how blinkered SOME remoaners are. The moaning about deal or no deal. Why is it they get enraged when the U.K says deal or no deal BUT the eu have been saying the exact same thing since last august and the exact same remoaners never seem to mention it?
Not around here... up £15k in the last 12 months or 1.6%........ New runway, rail and tube links..... the only way is up Just next door a two bed maisonette is £285k with a garden of 12' x 20'.... long lease... If you are interested. ..... the neighbours are nice
Sod that. Bloke next door has got bloody noisy motorbikes....*grumble*...*moan*... *shake fist at sky*
It’s OK because you can’t hear them over the aircraft, the diesel electric goods trains and the M25 and M4 traffic noise.
I have been saying we will have no deal for almost a year. What’s interesting is that no one seems to realise that the EU may adopt the position France is drifting towards which is.....bored now, no deal is fine, time to move on......and the PM won’t have an option
Repeat: why do you think House prices are going to continue to fall @749er? A “No Deal” Brexit will affect trade and jobs, but most people don’t move house every year. They shall mostly sit tight and wait for times to get better, the same as last time. The exceptions to this are: 1. bereavement sales, so someone gets a bargain and the next of kin get less inheritance as a forced sale raises less money. 2. Houses bought with “foreign” money. This affects top end prices, especially in the better bits of London. If the pound falls as expected, houses in this part of the market get cheaper (In dollars) even if the price stays the same, so they are as likely to go up.
And once again you resort to bullying by making ad hominem attacks. You really aren't adding anything to this debate.
Oh hello - you have room to talk I measure my responses and humour to whom I address, some take it the wrong way, 99.9% don't. You however have been quite insulting to many (in fact this thread and debate took a turn for the worst with your spitefulness) - so I would have expected you could handle a bit of light humour back - but no! rock on Antonyeeeee and well done cry baby
