      House price crash signs

      It is worrying that we have a whole generation of new home owners that have only ever experienced rock bottom interest rates. Before the crash, my mortgage rate was something like 4.5%. Going back further it was even higher. In the very early 90's I seem to remember them sky rocketing to over 13%!! Can you imagine what will happen to the market when rates do eventually rise to their normal levels? Example:

      £ 300k mortgage over 25 years.

      @2% - £ 1,280 a month
      @5% - £ 1,773 a month

      That's c. £ 500 per month increase, which is enough to put most people over the edge I would imagine, given people are maxing out on what they can borrow already.
      1% interest rates is the new normal. The credit bubble is collapsing. We're looking at another 15 years of ZIRP; minimum.

                  That's exactly what a compulsive liar would say
