maverick73 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 These drops are peanuts... they've risen for over 10 years.... requires a solid drop to attract buyers.... more EU rumbles, US rate hikes... should create ample corrections in values.

Weird that they haven't put any furniture in the place when they're asking so much money for it. For comparison in my neck of the woods (a mile or so nearer to central London, much more vibrant area), you could live in any of these lovely houses and have an extra 1/4 of a mill in the back pocket. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-73827899.html http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-73864445.html http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-65684545.html they are semi`s this is detached sadly its on a main road. those semi`s are only worth 500-600k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own though. * I'm assuming your example is similar to the original one here. Could NOT AGREE MORE!!!!! SPOT ON.

Something seems to have given and the smell of collapse is in the air again. It's too late for me and my family, there is no way I'm staying in the UK to fund a boomers retirement and end of life care, knowing fine well that the pwopatee I buy from them will be worth 50% less in no time at all. The trolls make me laugh when they come on here telling us we are wrong, they are right, we've lost out etc etc etc, they are thinking in the here and now, then think this win will continue forever, until that day when they too will cash their chips in....sadly, for them, it wont, but Im one of the lucky ones my chips are cashed and I am off.... So I say Thank you for the Q.E, the cash I'm spending, Thanks for all the joy that's bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would life be? Without all that free cash what are we? So I say thank you for the Q.E. For giving it to me Enjoy your pwopatee empires dick wads. Edited June 21, 2018 by TheCountOfNowhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The unspeakable Sajid David is doing his utmost to ensure the UK population keeps rising at a vigorous clip with a no-questions, fast-track registration process for EU citizens. If nothing else it should guarantee his brother's numerous BTL's remain fully tenanted for the forseeable future. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/jun/21/uk-unveils-post-brexit-eu-citizen-settlement-scheme Quote The government has promised to fast-track the registration process for EU citizens who want to stay in the UK after Brexit, with decisions on applications to remain in the country reduced from six months to “a matter of days”. Unveiling details of the “settlement scheme” for EU citizens, the Home Office promised that the application process would be “short, simple and user friendly” with a default position of accepting rather than rejecting applications. Applicants will be asked to prove their identity, that they have no convictions, and that they currently live in the UK. The answers will then be compared to a database with the aim of giving the quickest answer possible. “Our default position will be to grant status,” Javid told the Lords EU justice sub-committee. “We will be looking to grant status as quickly as we can. We will not be looking for excuses at all to not grant status. It will be driven by default view, you provide this information, if you’re not going to be granted status there will have to be a very serious reason.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seller either owns the new build and cashing in and keeping the free house or some mug that paid 300k for a garage and another 120k building the place. I remember seeing the advert for the opportunity in ea speak ?. I never followed it up though. I have seen lots of crap like this make someone 500k for doing very little.

Mikhail Liebenstein Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 On 19/06/2018 at 10:40, TheCountOfNowhere said: "The research showed that house prices in the City fell 25.9 per cent in the year to April, " Does that include further drops in Dollar Terms? I think this is too be expected. One of my theories is that London was overvalued as far back as the 1990s. The low rates we have had since then and particularly since the financial crisis 10 years ago were really about propping up prices as the smaller cohort of Generation X moved into the market. Now the Millennials are meant to be buying, except we they have no money. I think the only way out is inflation, they’ll let inflation rip and then pump interest rates.
