The nonsense of "average house prices"

[TimberWolf]

That's because rich PIIGS are snapping up properties in London like hot cakes.

Plus there is state sponsored house price ramping going on.

[centurian]

So it seems the nicest bits of southern England are completely recession proof

Of course their must be a UK average - to keep up the UK obsession. What a pity we can't be more like Germany.

'tis a nonsense.
Remember these:-
Phase Three 'Third Floor', Laharna Buildi...Northern Ireland, New Homes - Brian A Todd



...and no, I didn't buy any.

Pah £90k check this 2 flat apartments out:

£750,000 for this 2 bedroom flat for sale in The Cube, Wharfside Street, Birmingham, B1 , B1

Looks like they Cubed the original fair value price

Thought I'd have a quick look at the last Land Registry report on house prices.

Boomed!

City of Westminster up 7.1% over the last 12 months.
Windsor and Maidenhead Up nearly 3% over the last 12 months.
Poole up 3% over the last 12 months.

Doomed!

Hartlepool down nearly 20% in 12 months.
Oldham down nearly 14% in 12 months.

etc.


So it seems the nicest bits of southern England are completely recession proof and northern tulipeholes are well, northern tulipeholes and are going down the pan.


Average figures for the UK is a nonsense.

How are houses in Darras Hall doing? That's north of Newcastle isn't it?

[scooterscot]

Birmingham falls into the northern tulipeholes category.

Good news for you. In a couple of years you'll be buying a bedsit for £50K***

It'll cost you that for a season ticket on HS2 when it's finished.

Save now buy in central London while you still can.

Birmingham is right in the middle.

Here is a decent house near where I live:

6 bedroom detached house for sale in Oakhurst, 45 Church Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15

HTH

That's been converted to a curry house.

[AtW]

Utterly charmless, full of poor taste and so nouveau - you should buy it

I might just do that
