    I'm not surprised at all. With banks failing and interest rates so low, people with money are looking for better use of their cash. Property long-term is failsafe. If a bank goes under and your money is offshore you could lose all of your cash, and money onshore is generally only guaranteed up to
    50K.

        If you'd bought a house in CyberToryShire you wouldn't have had a single month of price deflation or stagnation.

            That's twice in two days we've agreed on something.




            I'm a bit worried.

              That's probably because I have not mentioned nationalisation or politics.

                Asking prices for properties in London's best-heeled areas increased by an average of 1.3% (£16,106) in January, according to Primelocation.com – the second index to report a rise in house prices last month.

                .
                ASKING price surveys are worth nothing.

                Anyone can ask more for their house that it's worth,

                only actual SALE price surveys are worth reading

                    I trust this oversight will be corrected?
