jabber Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 I've just STR, bought last house for 350k 2011, just exchanged for 640k. I'm based in South East on the coast but moving to The Lakes. Not expecting much in the way of falls next year. Ultimately unless interest rates rise (not going to happen) or credit dries up (unlikely as well) there will be no significant falls. I work for a SaaS company in East London and my salary remains unchanged by the move. I expect we'll buy again 12 months down the road. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

People buying houses now or in the last few years are no more or less prudent those those waiting for a crash. Ultimately, i would argue that it is more prudent to invest in a property to live in then to sit about waiting for this crash that's always around the corner but never seems to materialise.

Congrats on exchanging, you've certainly made a tidy profit there. Completely agree with your assessment BTW, unless interest rates suddenly blow up there will be no crash.

sta100 Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I sold my property at the end of last year, I'm sort of a forced STR as the seller above me pulled out before exchange. The whole system is a nightmare anyway, this SD deadline has made it even worse as people push on. I'll be sitting this out for a while Quote Link to post Share on other sites
