Any examples?

Hopefully the law over there is less corrupt than Spain when it comes to owning property.

But when the governement needs an injection in to the coffers but doesn't want to pi$$ off the voting natives.. Where they going to come calling?

Don't need to sell up. Buying retirement property (nice villa) in Oporto. Lots of distress sales in Portugal.

Yeah, but to be fair, the mass panic only started after you registered your details with local Estate Agents.

How rich are you again?

Sorry I forgot!

Looks like sasguru is onto a winner.

You can't beat bricks and mortar, house prices only ever go up, etc.

Personally I'd wait a few months until prices hit £2M, sell up and leave the country. By then £2M will buy a nice big villa overlooking the Med, sod Lyme Bay!

Oh dear! The green monster shows its ugly head.
Never mind SB, if you manage your overdraft properly this month, maybe you can replace a tiny bit of thatch on your hovel.

Like I would swap my extensive views of Lyme Bay for the opportunity of seeing Battersea Power Station through the smog!

Dream on!

Although the article is referring to Wandsworth Borough which includes Balham, Tooting, Battersea etc. as well as Wandsworth itself.

[doodab]

I used to. Parts of it are nice enough, but it's a bit overcrowded for my liking. I moved into zone 1 and then out to somewhere a bit leafier & quieter.

[shaunbhoy]

According to the article I live in the Special Needs Section! First I've heard it called that.
