    Sadly I was right

    https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/...899.1638289441

    House repossessions start to climb amid cost of living crisis: Properties taken back by banks rise 15% in three months as mortgage rates shoot up
    • There were 700 repossessions from homeowners between July and September
    • Repossessions from landlords also rose 11%, according to UK Finance data
    • Mortgage rates have climbed sharply adding hundreds to monthly payments
    Its going to be rocky, keep your cash dry!

    So repos went from 600 to 700 (up 15%). Of course things are going to get much worse than that. But a 100 extra repos across 9 million mortgages is hardly worth of a 'i told you so' thread

        first repossessions are quite hard to do, many banks don't like doing them and second the upward motion is just after the rules restricting repossessions have been relaxed.

        If you offer to pay something that the court sees as reasonable (remember fines can be paid back at £1 a week) the repossession is pretty much stopped in its tracks.

              You missed out a few EUs.
              Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

                  Given the volume of posts you make, it was bound to happen sooner or later.

                    He is turning into Scooty .... posts a hundred times, and claims the 1 lucky guess makes him right, but ignores the 99 times he was wrong.
