Primelocation Report: good spin!! but market data are as bad as they can be

Primelocation: House price index January 2008

Price data show a pretty grim picture. Sale and rental prices are still below the pre-credit crunch levels, and the so much heralded "reduction of inventory" may just be an effect of the Christmas break. Inventories are still 60 to 70% higher than any month pre-credit crunch. but we know that London sales volumes have collapsed (Land registry) so where did the stock go? "due to market uncertainties vendors are using a cautious approach pulling properties from the market".... aaaaaa... so we will find a larger stock of properties to rent!!! With "corporate rentals on the vane" expect the BTL nightmare to begin!! AHGAHHA AHHAH AHAH
