    Govt will always bail the banksters and households deep in debt at the expense of savers - you can't lose!

    Because you have to keep selling to realise the value, which takes time. Pricess occasionally stagnate or take small dips, which doesn't make you anything. Stamp duty, mortgage, fees and the rest mean you don't make anything in a year anyway. In short, you haven't done your sums.

    Tax free money

    House prices recorded their biggest monthly jump since 2002 in January, with a 2.5pc increase, Land Registry figures show.

    The £4,732 cash increase in the average property value compared with December pushed the average house price across England and Wales to £191,812.

    The 2.5pc upswing is the biggest monthly percentage increase recorded by the Land Registry since June 2002.

    On a regional basis, Wales saw the biggest monthly increase in property values in January, with a 3.7pc increase taking the average house price there to £125,665."
