Houses aren't overpriced, you are just lazy. If you are working less than 60 hours a week, it means you are part of the nouveau leisure elite. Stop complaining about 'high prices' & get yourself another job!We are currently experiencing the STR 'bear trap' phase of the housing cycle (the predictable dip in prices before the REAL boom starts).Even when house prices are falling, they are still rising. Get another job, you lazy BTL wannabe!

Even if the uk house prices dropped 30% it would only go back to 2003 levels people need to get a grip.

did you read my comment? I discussed that the only issue that will screw up the market is a surge in mortgage rates. 2 things DID mess up the market - less availability of offers and MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE rates (not to mention massive rise in deposits banks wanted)...so what egg? The market was fine (by that I mean not collapsing and in fact growing) until banks became scared of each other. That problem had little to do with peoples willingness to buy, even if it now affects it greatly.

"Crash expecters don't know what they are talking about"Uh-oh Rullar- wipe that egg from your face. House prices down 11% in just one year with the promise of more to come!

I find it so funny that people cannot afford their mortgages. They are so dumb, they deserve to have their house repossessed. Its a good time to have money in the bank. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I can't wait 3/4 years when the prices start to go up again and i can go back to buying more houses.

Well done Tony G you are master of equity.

Life's not fair (and that's great news), we all play the hands we were dealt, and if you live in the UK you have a fairly good hand, a better start than being born in Africa anyways. It's up to you what you do with the time you got, he decided not to play the rat race all his life, you will have similar opportunities if you look for them. But that's up to you

This is not fair. You are doing nothing for society. Your living off the backs of others hard work, helping to artificially inflate housing prices, while relaxing and feasting in front hard working, starving people. The government should RAISE your property TAXES becuase you own all these rentals! While at the same time, LOWERING taxes for single home owners. This would discourage your piggish greed, feasting off others, until you are forced to SELL bringing prices down for first time buyers.

yes, you are 100% correct. I apologise for the insensitivity and regretted my post as soon as it was sent
