Looking at rightmove with the bee and i saw this house:

3 bed detached house

Price has dropped from £215k to £170k since March, do you reckon that this or a similar house could be sold for £130k in a years time?

Personally i think this is a lovely house and my bear mind tells me that i could just about afford £130k in a years time.

So am i being realistic or in cloud cuckoo land

Do you get a lot of quick sand round your way?

[LumpHammer]

That depends on what quick sand means...?

Tom,

I reckon you've got a fair chance before the year 2009 is out.

They would probably accept £155k today, by October/November you could get very close.

[HouseDog]

My 2 cents thinks that in NN7 this kind of property may well have an asking price of 150 to 155K in twelve months time.

If we're still in a strong buyers market (which I think we will be) you may well be able offer and buy somewhere near 140 - 145K at this time.

However, I don't think we will see the true bottom of the market till sometime in late 2011 to 2012.

How does number 48 compare to this one ? Go and have a look and let us know ???

Some other sales listed too, worth a look.

If you go and offer 130K on it now you will find out if it will sell for that

I like NN7! Here's one I'd buy:

I'm a big fan of a lot of 70s and 80s architecture - I love all the glass they used before building regulations mean't that we now have to live in the dark if we want a new build.

My budget is £240k. What do you reckon?

Now down to £162,500...........are you on course for £130,000?

[D Vardy's Shadow]

Now under offer

[TheCountOfNowhere]

Can someone look in the land registry in 12 months ( ) and let us all know what it actually sells for.

[planet78]

Still showing as 'under offer' 3 months on. That offer is taking some sorting out.
