Cogs Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Do the Tories want to make housing affordable? I doubt it, they'd hack off 99% of their "base". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete.hpc Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 What will the Tories do to make housing more affordable? Not throw more taxpayer cash at keeping them at their current levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty1080 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Massive discount on right to buy. Give the Chavs cheap houses. Inflate another bubble and allow them to make a huge amount of unearned income when they sell said houses to yuppies in 10 years time, which they will then spend on pitbulls and Diamond White. Oh... hang on that's what they did last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porca misèria Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Interesting suggestion they might even adopt: encourage saving specifically for a house. That is to say, devise a savings account specifically for non-property-owners, whose value is ring-fenced against means-testing (in the same manner as the value of a house), and which is tax-free, but which cannot be spent on anything else without incurring penalties.

Stick to facts and not the myths, you lose credability if you pander to the myths largely dreamt up by the tabloid press of 80's Britain.

BearNecessities Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 BTL in itself wasn't such a bad idea, given we had experienced 6 years of falling values at the time. Many people who suffered repossession in the early 90s had no means or desire to purchase property again any time soon. The glut of prospective tenants and shortage of properties to rent was creating a bubble in rents (yields were commonly 15%+ as opposed to around 5% now) However, when it became rampant around the turn of the decade it should have been heavily restricted and regulated to remove much of the speculation from the market. Or course, the new bosses at the time (Messrs Brown and Blair) were quite happy to see it rage out of control as it fuelled Brown's deluded perpetual boom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godley Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 They will let market forces take over. If you had market forces today you would have had your correction sooner and sharper. Of course this basically means that people in houses today will be kicked out of them because they can no longer keep up with repayments, but hey you want house prices to come down don't you? By the way its banks that decide how much houses are worth because it is they who make the money available to buy one (in most cases).
