laurejon Report post Posted February 20, 2006 Given the news that there is an upsurge in sales, and enquiries and house prices rising 5K last month could this be the Toothpaste Phenomenon. In the last recession last knockings saw a final Upsurge in London that then collapsed just like the last squeeze of Toothpaste where you roll the tube up and squeeze only to get three times more than you wanted and the tube is left empty. The London drop then rippled out across the UK over a period of a year. History has always shown that London is the tidemark for the property market, and it takes around a year to filter through to everywhere else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
