    Apparently hordes of foreigners, such as Russians and Chinese, are currently buying property in London and nearby.

    I imagine all this unrest in the Middle East has also prompted well-heeled buyers from those countries to want to buy a potential bolt hole. Can't blame them, if they can.

    Correct. Its not my house, its a bungalow owned by a member of the family.

    Mine is the 5 bedroom house up north without a mortgage.

    £995,000 for a bog std 4 bed house in a busy street. I was outbid by another buyer within 2 hrs of making the offer.

    I'm guessing now is not the best time to buy in the SE.

    In northern Ireland the bottom will probably be reached in another year or so (60%-70% off the 2007 peak price).
