Bricks Chick: Housing market: the experts' views on property prices
"All confidence has gone from the market and so there is no incentive for buyers to move now, unless there are matters of birth, marriages, death or divorce. This state has been brought on by the difficulties in securing mortgage funding, fears of redundancy, the credit crunch, non-domicile tax changes, the cost of fuel, the cost of living - the list is endless. But if Gordon Brown doesn't know what is happening in the economy, what hope do we have?" YIEIIIEIIEIEIEIIEPIEIIEIEIIEIAH HAAHAHH

Good post Confused76 - top class comedy for a Friday night -
RICS - only 2% of BTL landlords are planning to sell - but the big question is how many will be FORCED to sell due to financial difficulties?

"there is no incentive for buyers to move now, unless there are matters of ... death"
Yeah right, that's the first thing I've pencilled in for the day after my funeral, popping down the estate agents.

The second one (Lucy).
"The number of people looking at the value of their home on a house price website has risen by nearly 300%.
Mouseprice.net, which provides free online valuations, said about 23,000 people visited its site each day during the three months to the end of March, compared with just 8,000 a day during the same period last year."
All BTL

Haven't read article, feeling sightly lazy....BUT, I can not believe that only 2% are considering selling. Let me think, my shares have gone up X%, 10, 20 30 % even more depending on when bought, the market MAY tank, what are you gonna do?

House prices across the Bidwells region - Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire, Suffolk, Norfolk and North Essex - fell 3.8 per cent on average.
Prime property prices around the world rose on average 11 per cent last year, according to the Knight Frank Annual Wealth Report. (who gives a sh*t)
The biggest jump in prime property prices was in Antigua (up 40 per cent) but London - at £3,025 per sq ft - remains the most expensive location for top quality homes.
House prices will fall by 8 per cent this year, says Capital Economics in its updated forecasts, and by 10 per cent next year.
Artisreal, the real estate services firm, begs to differ. It predicts a fall of 2.1 per cent across the UK this year and of 0.5 per cent next year. But it hopes that, by the end of 2010, prices will have recovered by 2.4 per cent.
Oh no, I started reading. Oh well for what its worth I predict prices will fall by 40-50% over the next few years.

phil spencer, 'gert lush'? denzil, I never would have thought.
It's people like you who have relegated Kirsty Allslop to only 91 in the official World Poll of the 100 Most Beautiful Women Ever. Or something.

Where does the 2% of landlords planning to sell come from?
Aside from that a highly embarassing production from the times.
