According to their poll 55% believe there will be a crash, vs. 26% a flat market.
Crikey, that's changed since a few months back.

A lot will depend on the migrant workforce, such as those from Poland. They are renting from the buy to let landlords and if the ecomomy does take a downturn will these workers return to their home countries? They cann't in most cases claim benefits here, so will they take the money they have earned and live on it more cheaply in there old countries than staying in the UK. They arrived over a short period of time and I wonder how quickly they could exit the UK and how great an effect this would have.

This poll is important. High house prices have only been maintianed by public sentiment (house prices only go up etc.) Once the public believe that house prices are too high the support will fall away, as will the prices. It is important to remember though that just under half of the voters don't think that there will be a crash. If they are still willing to spend silly money they will be able to shore up a shrinking market - for a time at least.
