I live in the back of beyond, and my house has increased in value about 30% since xmas having had it revalued, but generally prices are static where I Am

Surveys don't account for massive variations at a local level

Apparently Birmingham's the place to be...

I thought this piece is quite on the mark.

Yep, we have a Tory govt, so yes, property is a no brainer. If prices look like they might fall, Call Me Dave will do a bung to all Tory voting property owners, courtesy of tax paying renters so sweeten the pill.

Keep buying bricks n mortar, NEVER vote Labour, simples.

Wow shock horror, ZIRP, tax breaks for BTL investors, NIMBY planning authorities and record immigration levels and house prices are rising fast?

Who'd have thunk it?

We are all rich I tell ya!

Just completed on 4 BTL in the last two weeks at a 70% LTV, with another 3 offers in place, which will take me to 9 in total by the start of July.

Absolute no brainer.
