HAHAHAHAHA i have been trying for months!

So what does this mean for Barratts as the share price is dropping for them , got a friend who is buying a house off them that they are currently building

so with northern Rock going tits up do you think this is an indication that the HPC is kicking off, also do you think they will be selling there premises cheap could make some nice flats out of those ?

so what does this actually mean, will this force lower prices , will this stop people paying over the top for property ?

The problem is though that people are still stupid enough to keep buying at ridiculous prices, EA's are making prices up eg a ground floor coucil flat in beruit for £115k ??? Until people stop paying these daft prices or bankrupt themselves it just doesnt appear to be happening? Someone talk some sense into these people

Im no expert just a potential 1st time buyer that refuses to pay stupid prices , im quite happy renting my 2 double bedroom top floor flat in a nice area of leeds for £400 a month without worrying This surely is going to impact on all the fooles who have intrest only mortgages , many people i know are already seriously struggling , estate agents appear to just make prices up (i could be wrong) but i have not seen any property in my area sell quickly at all. Personally i think the crash started a few months ago but nobody will dare admit this and now with this news inless you are completly mad who in the right mind is going to buy property right now ? as a 1st time buyer its the last thing i would think of doing and i imagine there are many more with my thoughts so this can only lead to one thing ......... Tell me if im wrong

Ok Im no expert but these house prices are just stupid things like 300k for 2 bed back to back etc that was like 90k a few years ago all because young people are being brainwashed into thinking they have to get on property market!!! I want to know how does your average person afford to live as well as pay these ridiculous mortgages. I think its already showing so many people i know are struggling to pay their debts shifting one debt to another I have also noticed that BBC is now starting to sit on the fence more as well upto the last few months its only been how well housing market is doing and business economy but now it reports more of the doom and gloom. If this market holds out for another 6 months i will be shocked. Becasue everyone is in so much debt trying to pay for their houses i am scared that xmas will be cancelled!!!! Roll on cheap reposessions could just all be in my head ?

I beleive this house price crash is already underway, one or two people still able to sell but the majority of people i know cannot sell for love nor money! In one instance a seller has tried over 12 months reducing from £240k down to the fact he has acepted an offer from buy your house for cash at below £160k

There is 2 flats for sale where i am in leeds , one a 1st floor flat and one a fourth floor, both on market for months at 129k, the fourth floor has put up the price to about 145k now as some gormless EA didnt check it!!! I rent one on the fifth floor whith no stress no worries for £400 a month!!! ha ha the world is mad if you think i would up that to £1000 a month just to say i bought a property!!! maybe its me but long live stress free living

Ok , finally people are seeing my point, i get loads of idots constantly telling me i have to buy and get on the property ladder before prices go up again so for all you people who are hassling me take note 1. Yes i earn a damn good salary but im tight!!! 2. I am not going to pay 180k for a pokey little flat in drug fueled area that was 45k less than 18 months ago 3. I currently rent a top floor double bedroom huge flat in a fantastic location for £400 p/m 4. I dont have to worry about maintenance or anything 5. No im not throwing money down the drain because the 180k flat you want me to buy will only sell for 70k (max) in a few years when im completley skint becasue i cant afford to pay it. 6. Show me 5 people who have sold a property in the last few months for their asking price!!! 7. Why buy now when i can have a repossed house for next to nothing by next year ?? 8. Why exactly must i get on the property ladder ???? Tell me im wrong ????

Is she attractive ?

You spoilt my idea now!

Ok, as soon as one person puts the price on a property up everyone does which how this whole over the top pricing started, example is my friend was the first to do this in an area near me , as soon as his was advertised at 40k overpriced all the others changed to match it ! So, if everyone on here puts in a £5 we buy a house and then sell it 50% less thus forcing everyone else to drop their price then the circle is complete!!!!! Word of mouth and a massive email shot to every first time buyer should be enough to raise funds to do this

Hey great idea, im goingto ring my bank now and ask them for a ridiculous mortgage on the grounds they reckon property will go up!!! wonder what they will say...

I have had enough of this , less than 4 days ago bbc tells everyone House prices are going up etc, 4 days later now they say its going down the pan ??? I will tell it how it is :- 1. house prices are overpriced 2. Nobody in their right mind will buy a council flat for 150k in bad area 3. Everyone who is mortgaged upto eyeballs to buy over priced houses are now skint! 4. Couples are splitting up becuase they have no money becasue they panic bought. 5. No FTB with any sense like me is going to buy I am no rocket scienties but even i can see the market is going down the toilet ? Tell me if im wrong someone please ???
