No background statistics endorsing 57.1% HPC is provided. Though 57.1% is an eventual inevitability, this article seems a rubbish.

Is this for real? Must be some mistake.
The Registers of Scotland are the same as our Land Registry, BTW.

And the prize for the worst house price article this year goes to aboutproperty.co.uk. Maybe the author was in a playful mood?

Quote from the Evening news:

"And the number of property sales has dropped by 57.1 per cent in a year"

The Evening News also say that prices fell by 10% since last year - not a bad start but not a real crash either.

Yep, it's the number of sales that has fallen 57.1%, not the prices
