ftb_fml Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 IIRC figures are usually released in the last few days of the month; however today is the last day of April and they're not out yet. Does anyone have a link to a summary of the release dates for this info please, if there is one? I'm sure they'll be along soon anyway, so we might as well treat this as the usual monthly prediction thread. I'm hoping for accelerated losses in the SE and perhaps a bit of a fall in annual growth from last month's 0.7%, but I don't expect it to go negative yet.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

According to this thread last month's were out on the 29th of March.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fantastic tool and for several years I've been seeing the same in the areas I follow in the North West and North East. Yet another month with a paltry number of transactions and hardly anything selling above £150k which is understandable taking wages in these areas into account. Most property listed for sale (but not selling) is on for 200k+ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks your site was invaluable in my recent purchase really allows you to see what the current value is a weed out the chuff. It does also show transactions are in the floor too.

Thanks, that really useful. 4 hours ago, LetsBuild said: +0.4% MoM +0.9% YoY I've been looking at a few houses around here (SE) recently and it's a mixed market. All the asking price falls have been on less desirable / 'froth of the market' type homes whereas the more desirable areas have either held or in some cases even sold for more. For example, one place near me was on for £315k, which was reasonable given the lack of drive / parking & amount of work needed (looked like it hadn't been updated since the 1970's) but it recently sold for £342.5k, which seems astonishing.

TBH though I think this is the 'peak' - I'm not seeing a lot of price action either way just mostly flat. From where I'm standing it looks like the constraint on prices going higher is interest rates while the constraints on prices falling is lack of supply coupled with... interest rates. I can get a 10-year fix for circa. 2.5% and today I found out you can get a 5-year fix for just 2%. With that sort of surety of rate and term prices will inevitably reach a peak and just stay there. Quote its going to kick off in a major fashion just a question of when ! To me it's only a question of what. I don't read the Sun but one of their, er, 'articles' came up on Google News and the headline was interesting enough so I had a look. Although it was pure newbuild property price pumping masquerading as 'advice' it did reveal one interesting titbit: the couple featured had taken on approximately £260k in debt and brought their newbuild with just a £12k deposit. They had so little money left that they ended up buying their furniture by maxing out with £2k in credit card debt! That is one hell of a coiled spring and if typical would lead to devastating consequences for both the housing market and banking sector, should IR's rise. That equates to a lot of pressure, both political and economic for the current trend to continue and it will take something pretty major for that to be overcome. But what?
