House prices might be falling, but the cost of moving is rising
Selling your house: an expensive move in a failing market
Allegedly the cost of moving has almost tripled in the last decade, to an average of nearly £10,000, and it's likely to go up more. Who'd want to sell their house with prices going down and a massive cost to move as well? I'm a first time buyer desperately hoping to get on the property ladder next year and it just looks less and less like it's going to be possible.

Right lads, pack-up the website; we were wrong all this time. I’m going to snap-up the domain name http://www.removalcostscrash.co.uk

Please wise up. There is no such thing as a housing ladder anymore. Focus on life aims and wherever they will take you. Forget a declining nation which offers little but takes far too much.

dont worry mazaru, soon when interest rates go up a lot of sellers will have their removal costs subsidised by the repo agent
