Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Blimey cynic it's because of Brexit apparently , or so some want us to believe .

2046 - surely a case of malapropism; it should be credibility

brexit has certainly caused temporary stagnation in the general market, but that's not the same thing

there have also been some badly burned fingers with off-plan investment purchases of riverside apartments along the thames in london, and there'll be more to come ...... there's been a severe oversupply for at least 18 months

=====================

just back from the gym, and it's seriously hot yet again, so must get down to the pool/beach for a read and a perv :-)

But of course it will be Brexit's fault . Although housing just can't go on like it has .

Brexit will make it worse.

Manuel, re-read and corrected.

(Mind I can see why I considered credulous with this incredible government.)

Manuel,

Because of past and present dyslexia I have a spelling checker running behind me and sometimes accept to easily.

But ummmh!

Dumbo,

Thankfully yes,

It makes it easier for me to forget what you post.

Good on you Fred.

Falling house prices will not be good. It will plunge large numbers of people into negative equity and then will not be able to move. It could trigger another recession.

What's that then Hays do you just want them to go up and up .The fact is we will have another house price wobble eventually anyway (in or out of the EU) because the recent rise has been too steep.

Depends on how far they will fall , if they do fall and that's a big if, with the increasing population, house building will not keep up with demand., and any interest rate increase will be small.

It will plunge large numbers of people into negative equity and then will not be able to move. It could trigger another recession.

That's all pie in the sky

An obvious period of stagnation of prices in the housing sector would be useful, as long as there is catch up in building and construction and not hiding away of land "licenced" for building.

Addressing the present problems should have started 6years ago.

aldwickk --- ''house building will not keep up with demand.''

The EU has demanded we build 220,000 a year, so our lapdog leader will oblige (or else).

It is all academic as the UK will vote to stay in.

How convenient Fred 6 years ago, why not during the period your Labour party was letting in 2 million migrants with their open door policy.

Well Druncker may have encouraged a few to vote out instead of in with his disgraceful Deserter remark. Seems we're ok as friends just as long as we do as we are told.
