Wonder what it would be if they included houses sold at auction.

Somebody should tell the estate agents where I live, they are still marketing new properties at silly prices.

Where I live (South Manchester) they are still marketing new build flats "From £159k", on a main road, near two noisy student pubs. Unsurprisingly, not a drop of activity. Makes you wonder why they didn't just down tools and suffer early losses. No doubt waiting for this magic "recovery"...
