"The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors reported this week that new properties have flooded the market as would-be sellers make a dash for the exits, with the number of homes on estate agents’ books rising by 9 per cent in October"

They've kept that VERY quiet.

Banks need to protect their bottom lines, Joe over leveraged Soap will gain no sympathy from the Big Boys.

Many are trying desperately to offload their properties now. My local area has 121 properties up for sale, way up from the 83 that were up for offer on the 1st April this year and rising at the rate of 3-4 per week.

We are at the start of world wide financial storm
(Credit crunch)
The U.S was the first to affected then like ripples in a pond
The rest of the world will be affected.
Spain, Italy, Eire, U.K,
Then few months later the rest of Europe
And even the booming economies of Australia , Asia , China.

The U.K is just second country to devalue their currency
Certainly not the last.
