Greedy vendors

[DimPrawn]

Your ID is highly amusing to me, but loses its credibility when you speak of buying a three-quarters of a million pound property just before we are to have the biggest property price slump in living memory. A bit like when you're trying to enjoy a film or nightmare and something illogical crops up that ruins the fantasy and wakes you up. 1/10.

I'm only going to buy a £750K house now if I can get it for less than £500K.

Certainly not going to pay £750K for house that was bought a few months ago for £500K ish.

If I had 500k to buy a house, I’d just bugger off somewhere sunny and sit under a palm tree being oralized until the recession’s over.

Well there's no sign of an extension and unless they went to a specialist to obtain realistic 1970's decor throughout, I'd say they'd only mown the lawn in the 10 months of ownership.

Still, they trying to make £170K for living in a house for a few months.

Boomed!

Credit Crunch ™ my rse.

Feb 07 is nearly 2 years ago, more than just a few months.

The only houses I have seen going for cheap are ones where someone ended up with 2 places at the same time and is desperate to shift one. Other than that most places are not dropping because the owner will not sell for less than they got the place for.

Since interest rates have dropped so much nobody is really pressed to sell now.

You bargain hunters will ruin the housing depression if you can't learn to be patient. It will take a little time before house prices plummet and people are repossessed and left destitute. Can't you just give it a few months before moaning?

Fair enough - you didn't say any of that in the original post.

Do you work for the Daily Mail?

No. Too left wing and cheery for me.

The land registry figures suck dead wombats.

Why do you say that? I've checked all my mates on nethouseprices.com and they're spot on.
