talksalot81 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Something seems a bit wrong, look at the Northern Ireland figures. orthern Ireland Average Cost: £250,586 Detached: £369,609 Semi-detached: £243,223 Terraced: £199,392 Flat: £205,178 Change in last quarter: 4.2% Change in last year: 39.1% The confusing part about this is that the media has been reporting that significant falls were apparent last quarter....

DblEntry Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Some anecdotal analysis: I have lived in Lambeth (Clapham Common) and Southwark (East Dulwich) in the past three years. Net 4Q 2007 falls are: Lambeth -10.7% Southwark -2% The interesting thing is that in both cases semi-detached and terraced houses rather than flats seemed to be driving the falls. Superficially this would appear to suggest that the most expensive houses are holding up rather well to date, but that there is a squeeze in the typical 'first family home space'. Flats Lambeth -4.4% Southwark +6.2% Semis Lambeth -15.8% Southwark -11.2% Detached Lambeth +7.4% Southwark +3.5% Terraced Lambeth -13.2% Southwark -1.3% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark my Words. ps - for the doubters amongst you, just think back to the US & the fact that all the mainstream analysts stated that there wasn't a chance of a recession, yeah right.....my ar$e look to the anecdotal info for the real picture.

DoctorJ Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 HertfordshireAverage Cost: £297,816 Detached: £558,087 Semi-detached: £317,195 Terraced: £249,085 Flat: £191,072 Change in last quarter: -3.7% Change in last year: 8.2% Sales: 5739 I can't believe the numbers - this is incredible. Hertfordshire in general is mixed some areas up some down, with the overall figure being skewed by a massive -19% drop in Three Rivers - wherever that is. Still, this is just the beginning.

"LOL hyperinflation is scaring me alot." oil (petrol etc) gas/electric food (commodities) mortgage costs aka 'libor spread' council tax so many to choose from, the list IS endless they are ALL up massively. Also remember we haven't even started to feel the infaltion in the system from those months & months of high oil prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hpc-craig Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 My Area has gone YOY NEGATIVE!!!! Forest of Dean: Average Cost: £214,914 Detached: £289,319 Semi-detached: £172,821 Terraced: £140,318 Flat: £109,629 Change in last quarter: -8.9% Change in last year: -1.1% That is still a shocking price for a semi dettached house or even a terraced house compared to the wages people are on. I imagine BTL has pushed this up. All other areas in Gloucestershire have decreased over the quarter but still quite a way off YOY -ve. The Cotwolds is up 17.6% and amazingly Tewekesbury which suffered terribly during last years floods is YOY 19.8%!!!!!! Still I'm happyish. Glad to see the crash is happening, but I don't intend to stay living here when I do buy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImA20SomethingGetMeOutOfHere Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I have to say that I am fast reaching bear news overload this week. Have a look at some of the other London Boroughs: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/in_d...ml/county37.stm City of Westminster: -11.1% Camden -9.7% City of London (yes I know it's been done already) -17.5% Merton -13% A mate of mine has just bought a flat in North London as an FTB. I fear for him. Hats off to the Forest of Dean though and an honourable mention for the county of Warrington which has managed to be -1.5% YoY.
