21.4% over 3 months, in a prime area of Oxford: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-64134174.html?utm_content=v2-ealertspropertyimage&utm_medium=email&utm_source=emailupdates&utm_campaign=emailupdatesinstant&utm_term=buying&sc_id=31722700&onetime_FromEmail=true&cid=103b1b10-d5bd-4db0-8495-bc1a9e683374&csg=0bdfd6bd5a70d8ce55ef549acdd0792f7842840058f7a56bfbbf2c6a5e38aedd -
5 years ago sold for £249k. Minimal work done......which then completely justifies a 2020 asking price of £395k! Real inflationary 2020 price should be circa £278k. Sigh... https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-84537685.html

Interested in how you managed to do that - you must have had a helluva savings/investment pot

TPTB do not agree with you. They will have you surrounded and squeezed until you squeal. Think we don't have enough space? Check out Sao Paolo or HK, or Mumbai. -
Yes that would be a real challenge in today's market, but once/if the market slows significantly, then realistic sellers might be persuaded by the chance of a sale, or quicker sale by putting it on such a website

How about starting a website that features/promotes only reasonably priced property (relative to local wages)?

2 months on the market, £2million reduction: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-92622185.html Who knows what good value looks like for a property like this? It indicates though that some sense is returning to the top of the market. -

Don't know what you're seeing, but I get the feeling that asking prices (since the market re-opened) are creeping up to a bold level, and a lot of properties I've had an eye on have gone STC in the last few weeks. Depressed. Is it a case of the last bullet winning the war?

Sales Volumes Down 52% in May
shavedchimp replied to Tulip_mania's topic in House prices and the economy
I do wonder how any sales at all went through in May, let alone 46230. I thought there was an official ban in effect during that period? -
