quote: Id say were experiencing a slump in the market, properties are taking longer to sell, loads for sale, loads on a fixed price as no interest at o/o. Several sites have closed down production as their not selling. Its trying times to say the least, great position if your a 1st time buyer with a bit of cash behind you & tick all the boxes to get a mortgage, however if your looking to sell its very worrying indeed. Think im going to wait a year before doing anything drastic, plenty good deals about.....but would mine sell without having to take a hit!!!? | |

Prices in Scotland are still going up though so none of that is much use to watson. | |

I work with in a land and property consultants. They're all saying the last of the price drops is yet to happen, certainly no price rises in the next 6 months MINIMUM. They don't say this to clients though :lol: | |

There's 2 houses for sale around the one i just bought, a 3 bed semi with large drive and garage, need modernisation although doesnt have a chain. Was originally up for £119,500 now on for £113,000... Only needs cosmestic things so thats a bargain in itself. | |

negative equity isnt an issue if your buying a house to live in for years and years. | |

Now is the time to buy, this will last for 6 - 12 months | |

Just now there seems to be loads of houses on the market not shifting, prices being slashed, lots going to a fixed price offer, even on brand new houses their offering very good offers to get you to sign, ive seen people get offered a 4 bed for the price of a 3 off one builder & also get half their mortgage paid for by them for 2 years :! | |

Renting is on the up atm due to people not wanting to buy houses due to 'negative equity' and the fact that its so difficult to get a mortgage, therefore the suply of good rented houses will be going quick should think? | |
