- Richard || The market won't crash. It'll be worse this time! -- left at Fri Nov 09 20:44:39 +0000 2007
- mike || It is impossible fot the market to crash. The fact is that demand still out weighs stock. Watch all the buyers come out the wood work when the base rate drops. That totalled with an influx from Europe and new homes quotas being significantly down, this is just a blip! -- left at Thu Nov 22 12:38:51 +0000 2007
- Lara || It doesn't matter if the base rate drops. It's the libor rate that matters. The influx from Europe oh yeah when two sign the rental agreement and 20 move in. Abandon ship. It's going down down down. -- left at Mon Nov 26 13:46:38 +0000 2007
- Tim || Property is the best long term investment - people have been overvaluing their houses, asking prices are becoming more realistic -- left at Sat Dec 01 16:44:08 +0000 2007
- catherine geddes bn1 || Laura is right. it is the libor rate that counts. Plus the fact that so many buyers/mortgage holders are slipping into SUB PRIME status because they have missed a payment or two. These people will not be able to mortgatge/remortgage at favourable terms. Does no one remember the crash of 1990? The same old excuses were trotted out then. Lack of affordable housing, pent up demand, etc. When prices start to slide buyers hold back, live with parents etc., and wait...... and wait..... They did that in the early 1990s and they will do that now... My friend has had 2 people to view since Sept 07. 2 people... where is the pent up demand there? Catherine -- left at Tue Dec 04 10:37:23 +0000 2007
- Simon || The libor rate hike will ration all lending -which cannot be a bad thing. However, the basic economics of supply and demand remain the same in the housing market leading to a less marked drop in prices compared with the early 90s. -- left at Fri Dec 14 12:46:25 +0000 2007
- The Flying Baron || Base rates off 1% over next 2 years. LIBOR spread to base rate to increase by 1-2% over the next 2 years. Dodgy brokers get found out for lending those dodgy self cert morgages that allow waiters and barmen to own £500k homes. Whole market is about to fall apart. Self Cert is about to become the UKs version of Sub prime. I think there is about to be a full on economic Death Spiral - and I cannot wait. All those irrelevent buy to let morons are about to get found out! Enjoy the viewing, it is gonna be great! -- left at Tue Dec 18 15:42:10 +0000 2007
- Bodger || I hope you've all read the news story about how the nation's property is now worth 4 trillion pounds, yet there is only 1.2 trillion pounds of mortgage debt. With that kind of equity out there, falling interest rates (including LIBOR - check the papers) and steady employment, I'm afraid the gleeful doom-mongers are going to be disappointed indefinitely. -- left at Sat Jan 12 12:24:29 +0000 2008
- Passenger || Supply and Demand - The UK is not as overcrowded little island as many would have you believe. It is in the interest of House Builders / Estate Agents and lenders to create a false economy stating the Supply and demand cause. Houses prices stay high and the builder makes more profit, the estate agent makes a higher commision and the buyer takes a larger mortgage, paying more to the lender. Interest Rates - Interest rates are still at a relative low- Yes not as low as some point in the last 10 year, but if a .25% raise hits home owners as hard as the media would have you believe they should never have obtained the loan, which leads to the credit crunch / subprime / economy built on debt - anyone with a less than pristine credit history will find mortgages harder to find - gone are the days of a FTB taking a 95% mortgage- this will hit demand. Most FTB have saved for years to buy and have been watching the market and are now expecting a bargain. Just look at the retail sales and how everyone waits for 70% off sales. which leads to the fact that we are on the verge of the start of a potential global recession.... everything is pointing to a crash- of gigantic proportions.... but this will effect more than just house prices. look at CITI who some are expecting to write off $24 billion and byebye 20,000 jobs.... -- left at Mon Jan 14 20:28:11 +0000 2008
- Tony || Having equity in your home can give a false impression of wealth. The people who have bought cars, holidays and luxury goods secured against their home, will feel the pinch when interest rates rise. When there is no or little equity left, then the holidays and toys will seem more expensive. -- left at Wed Mar 12 17:24:43 +0000 2008
- S || I moved North 7 years ago because I couldn't afford to get on the ladder, especially as an older single person. I bought and sold at the right time. Am now renting, making the most of my life whilst biding my time and hoping that one day in the not too distant future,I can return to sussex, where I really feel at home, and afford to live there. My instinct tells me it will happen. Watch this space x -- left at Fri May 02 23:47:38 +0000 2008
- alex || It's not so funny when it's your property that's falling in price! -- left at Fri Jun 27 18:24:32 +0000 2008
- S || no Alex its not funny at all, but prices have been over inflated for a long time and a correction is badly needed so that people like myself have a decent chance of owning.If people bought a few years ago they are still likely to make a profit but those that bought at the top I feel sorry for, but at least they can sit it out as there will one day be a boom cycle again! Again I feel for those that are in danger of repossesion but the lesson is never to lend beyond what you safely know you can afford and take all senarios into account. -- left at Sat Jul 05 13:15:51 +0000 2008
- NJW || In 1990 at the age of 23 I bought a small terraced house in Tunbridge Wells for the previous two years I had been advised by friends, family, estate agents and other property “professionals” that if I didn’t buy soon I would never be able to buy. There was a frenzy of buying in 1988 when £30,000 of mortgage interest tax relief could be claimed by each person buying a property (i.e. £60,000 relief for couples). This changed so that the £30,000 relief was linked to the property effectively halving the tax relief which increased monthly payments by about £100. I remember most of the people my age paying inflated prices to get on to the housing ladder, before this change occurred. Once the duel relief was withdrawn the housing market went quiet mortgage advisors and estate agents, desperate for me to buy, told me that enquiries had slowed dramatically. By the middle of 1989 prices were dropping: employment was still high the economy was fine, we were told that there was a housing shortage and estate agents and the like kept telling me their had never been a better time to buy. Estate agents told me to offer 10% under the asking price and most vendors would accept it. Prices did seem to stabilise and the general belief was that prices would soon begin to rise again – the worst was over. I bought a tiny 2 bed terraced house in May 1990 for £62,000 it had been on at £68,000. Then job losses started to be reported across the country, estate agencies: some big ones went bust; construction companies failed, DIY stores saw went in to big losses so by August 1990 house prices were falling again, within months of buying I was in negative equity (negative equity, like credit crunch now, was a new term in 1990). This taught me a useful but painful lesson, those selling houses and mortgages only keep their jobs if they sell properties. If they told us to wait until next month or next year when houses would be cheaper they would make no sales, they relied on us believing their lies to keep them in a job – most of you reading this are probably saying to yourselves, ‘well that’s obvious.’ But right now TV news and in newspapers Chartered Surveyors, Estate Agents and Mortgage Lenders are given the role of independent property professionals, in discussions I have and over hear they are cited by those who still believe prices will soon start rising again. By mid 1991 my next door neighbour who wanted to sell was advised to take anything over £30,000, essentially my property which was identical to theirs had fallen by 50%. Through the recession I was lucky enough to hold on to my job and as interest rates started to fall during 1992/3 I left my payments the same, so by the time I sold the house in 1996 I got £57,000 for it having got the mortgage down to £52,000. The stress of keeping mortgage repayments going and holding on to a job destroyed my relationship and those of many of my friends. I know of two couples who handed their keys back and one was still being chased for the debt in 2004. I know the past is no indication of the future, but I believe we have seen a small drop in house prices which relates to the credit crunch and the most recent excessive price rises. For a short time prices will probably stop falling giving the property professionals the ability to push the lie that everything is OK and we should all start buying again. However, now the economy is slowing, people will and are losing their jobs and this insecurity will make selling even harder. People losing their jobs will not be able to keep up payments on all their debts and repossessions will grow rapidly. The property professionals from saying prices will not drop last year now say prices will fall a small amount and then begin rising again and that larger falls will simply be due to those warning of impending doom. Remember if they sell a property or mortgage to you they walk away with a hefty commission, you walk away with a large, long-term debt and the property may not be worth the same amount again for a decade or more. I think for those that made money from the housing market in recent years most, probably 90%, will lose it all, because they simply went up with the good times now they will go down with the bad times. For those struggling - just sell up: cut more off the price than you really want to even sell to these vulture companies who will buy it for 80% of the value, because most of them will go bankrupt and then you can buy it back off the receiver for half the price they bought from you. Good luck one and all and whether you agree with me or not do not believe those who make a commission selling you property – you will regret it for a very long time – certainly long after you’ve forgotten their name and who they worked for. -- left at Mon Jul 07 18:23:57 +0000 2008

- Laura || Of course prices will drop in Brighton - even more so perhaps as some people seem to think it's an alternative to expensive London. There are few jobs here - especially well-paid ones and commuters with sense will realise it's not worth the expense and stress of travel to live outside London unless it's somewhere with much cheaper property. -- left at Mon Aug 18 15:44:19 +0000 2008
- NJW || S, although I have not since bought simply through bad timing on my part, I have survived quite well. Just done a simple calculation that if the house I sold in 1996 for £57K had gone up 5% a year, slightly above the government inflation rate, it would now sell for about £95K. I suspect it would actually be on the market now for about £150K. So you could argue property is a good investment or it could suggest that prices have a very long way to fall. I think property can be a good investment if you get in and out at the right time and don't overstretch yourself. I think most have overstretched including the banks which is the reason prices have risen to far. The next phase is probably when people and banks will not be prepared to stretch at all, so what seems like reasonable prices even now will soon be regarded as excessive and beyond most people's pockets. -- left at Wed Sep 03 10:13:48 +0000 2008
- Kirstin || 40,000 jobs at risk at HBOS/Lloyds - which have a large office in Brighton - the city with very few decent paid jobs - but prices that rival London. House prices in Brighton will never fall huh? Yeah right. Looks like the housing ATM is closing down for good. People may have to live within their means, shock horror. -- left at Thu Sep 18 12:35:58 +0000 2008
- little j || propertys not selling at auctions either.The big bods with liquid are sitting pretty,they know its coming down big time!

- || So there you have it... everybody who said it would crash - YOU WERE RIGHT! (Wasn't rocket science was it). And it's nowhere near over yet... Don't buy anything unless it's discounted by at least 50%. I have bought a 4 bedroom house in the Wilbury area for £175,000 and a 3 bed on Manor Hill for a staggering £35,000 this week - and the prices are getting cheaper and cheaper. Go look and then kick the sellers very hard in the balls when you make an offer. If they say no then walk away. They'll be back to you. And if they're not, there's always another cheap house round the corner. Good luck and happy hunting... So pleased a bit of common sense has returned to the market... -- left at Thu Nov 27 02:11:35 +0000 2008

- S || Hi everybody, its 2009 and im gettng a bit impatient as I yearn to be back in Sussex after 8 years now up North.(look for entry left may 08 by S)(stands for Sandra) Dont really want to be here for another winter so considering my move for August but heres my dilemma; Althought I made enough for a decent deposit by selling in 07, buying now could still leave me with a mortgage much larger than I would like but dont want to miss the boat by leaving it too long. There again I always read the free reports from money week who are advising that property still has a few years of decline. Was thinking of renting down there (brighton,hove,worthing or eastbourne)whilst looking around but also dont want to use up too much of my potential deposit as outgoings would be much larger than the situation im in now, plus I have to build up my self employment again whilst finding work to tide me through the process. Maybe I should sit it out here for another year as I dont really want a property for any more than £70,000. Has anybody got any advice?? does anyone have a ground floor with enclosed garden for me and my elderly cat to rent in the future with a reasonable rent?? Would anyone be interested in a joint ownership of a large property that could be divided?? Im just trying to think laterally at all possibilities. -- left at Tue May 12 22:02:57 +0000 2009
- NJW || Hi I believe the housing market, at this time is similar to when I bought in 1990. People who made their living from the property business were, then like now, claiming prices had reached the bottom and just like then are again urging people to buy. I listened and bought in 1990 and then prices dropped another 50%. Six years later I sold for a small loss. Like the property industry people (I avoid using professionals as I don't know what that means) I too cannot predict the future. So instead consider all the news: most is pretty bad and that is after the government has put billions in to the economy. This will also have to be repaid by you and me through higher taxes for many years. I think interest rates will go up to at least 8% in the next few years particularly if the pound gets weaker, which it will if other countries and banks think Britain is in serious debt problems. My view don't buy and certainly don't buy with someone you don't know either. There is pretty well no escape from a negative equity situation which if you buy now I believe will be your situation for 5 to 10 years. Remember just like renting you don't own a mortgaged property your landlord does, and that means you have a bank as a landlord. The only difference is that as the bank's tenant you must pay for the total upkeep of the property and if you don't keep up the rent (mortgage) payments they can personally bankrupt you. -- left at Thu Jul 23 10:29:55 +0000 2009
- Tim Stevens || I have to agree with one of the previous comments unfortunately I don't think prices in Brighton are going to drop significantly enough for my son to get on the property ladder as I feel its a place lots of people want to live regardless of the cost, will continue to keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best but at the moment prices only seem to have come down by a few percent and for me that's not what you'd call a crash as some previous people have been talking about !!! -- left at Sun Aug 09 11:45:08 +0000 2009
- S || It is now 2010 how time flies! I think the 2nd wave of property crash has begun. It may be slow but I think it is a going to be a long drawn out process. In the meantime I have recently moved back South and am still renting. I am so glad I managed to sell my flat up North in 2007 and got some of my profit fixed in longterm accounts. I feel very lucky and glad I acted on my instincts at the time. Home ownership is actually not all its cracked up to be and brings many resposibilities that can soon eat up your money. The right type of renting can be very secure and not necessarily more than a mortgage. I think I'd rather use my money for some travel Ive always wanted to do rather than get back on the dodgy ladder. -- left at Sun May 02 01:29:48 +0000 2010
- little j || looks like things will get bad as jobs are going....so lets see how much property will CRASH !!! -- left at Sun Aug 29 18:18:11 +0000 2010
- S || Anybody still checking out this stream? any thoughts now we are in 2011? Very interesting to read through these threads that began in 2008 also very interesting times we are going through now. Im still renting since my sale in 2007 but watching closely. Hope all those in difficult situations over the last few years managed to pull through. -- left at Wed Jun 29 12:10:59 +0000 2011
