    So yes demand is strong ish...but still doesn't make a great deal of sense considering that its plummeting in value.
    Do the same maths hold for houses? Alot of flats have been built last few years - but not many houses.

    I suspect it was a f**ker who only ever considered the glass being half full and not smashed on the floor.

    My sister-in-law has a well paid job in central London, but can no longer afford her 2-bed flat, due to rising mortgage payments and reduced income due to inflation and tax rises.

    She knows she can't flog it, so she's renting it out. The rental demand is incredible. People are paying huge rents to live there.

    She is moving in with a friend in a cheaper area (renting).

    Funny old world.

    Boomed and all that.

    We will soon be back to the days when a s-hole is considered a s-hole. Rather than "oh it's a s-hole but it's an up and coming area and this time next year it will be worth 20% more, so yes we'll have it"

    The demand for rented properties remains strong as rising mortgage bills and calls for larger deposits put many buyers off, a report has claimed.

    The only sales now are distress ones. Anyone who can afford to is renting their house out rather than selling.

    The fall in sales far exceeds the depths of the last housing crash in the 1990s and is the lowest since records began in 1978.

    From correction to crash to collapse .....
