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....

Fred, If you were a young person waiting to get on the housing ladder you would be delighted to see the prices falling I expect, so a silver lining for some I assume.
The housing market outside of London has been driven to some extent by the buy to let markert. due to such low returns on cash, many have invested in property, getting those than cannot get a mortgage to buy their property for them. To controll the spiral in home prices, the laws should give tenants a right to buy, which may be a solution to prevent the rich using housing the poor as a way to get richer. Let the rich invest in commercial enterprises and property by all means but not trade on the misery of the poor.
So Brexit may well help lower the entry level for those wishing to buy rather than rent.

CT.
A relationship to question is that of the earning power of the young related to the price of housing.
With reducing economic growth and probable inflation of sustenance items, the available % of income for house purchase may be reduced.
In a growing economy, increasing house building would probably restrain a too rapid increase in house prices and also reduce rents.
But, again I am guessing.

Dilbert,
We've got 85cm of snow here, and another 20cm forecast today. The roads are cleared, everyone's gone to work, and you can see the road signs.
When you decide to stay in the EU, you'll be able to ask the europeans for some tips on how they survive the winters.

Funny you should say that Hilary I had a chin wag with a fella from Poland last night at a music event and he said the same, he just can't understand why virtually everything grinds to a halt over here when we get only relatively low levels of snow.

Hils , only the side roads are bad and they are passable with care. We laugh here when Cardiff or London see a snowflake and it becomes the main item on the news and everything grinds to a halt.
Was never really into it Stan , did a bit in the Docks at Barry when I was a kid and sometimes went out on one of the pilot boats that my mates father was captain of. I always found it boring.
