House price boom? Buy now? I think not.
Ps. Been watching one property in the NW that's already had £70k trimmed off in the last 9 months alone. Still unsold. And a long way further to fall.nomadd liked this postComment

Originally posted by nomadd View PostYes, buy now, at the end of the biggest boom in history. When house prices are already falling. And the banks have turned off the money taps (as they never had the money in the first place...) Oh, and this mornings news reports that 50% of EAs have disappeared since 2008.

If you don't want to move any time soon, you're fine - the only difference you'll see is mortgaging options shrinking the further away you get from having 20% collateral in the property....."Being a permy is like being married, when there's no more sex on the cards....and she's got fat."

Originally posted by The Agents View View PostTis swings and roundabouts. Buy a house and it will go up in value. Maybe not immediately, and it might take a drop before it goes up, but ultimately, it will always go up. It's completely immaterial as well - once you're on the ladder, prices going up and down make no difference at all - unless you have two places to live, you're always going to need a house, which means your gains just get passed down the chain.....

Buy and relax.
Infact buy 1000 BTL house, and be even more relaxed nothing can go wrong and you're children will inherit a fortune.
Perma boom.Comment
