House Prices

House prices stuttered after September 11th, the boom started to gain momentum again in 2003

After September 11th, fear of recession drove central banks to lower interest rates and thus the era of cheap money arrived.

I prefer the Chanel, personally.

Yes, but Rive Gauche is more subtle.

Well, I am not sure that it's only a matter of confidence and belief in house prices. History shows us that house price crashes happen when people expect them least and are a combination of several factors (not alwas the same ones either).

In that case, if we want to learn the lessons of history, as long as we keep expecting a house price crash, it will never happen.

You're getting very warm Old Greg. The housing crash will occur when AtW argues that he now believes a housing crash will never occur.

It is similar to carrying an umbrella; statistically it rains less if you remember to take your brolly with you.

Yes, we could have done with a few more perfume options.

Although we must be careful, I'm old enough to remember Hi Karate...
