    Cost of living rising but house prices on the rise…..mmmmmm….. surely the opposite should be happening in a true market….whole housing market is minupulated to benefit unscrupulous money grubbing landlords who cant lose to competitors as such because rival landlords help to decrease available property available to the first time buyer..increase rental income and the value of THEIR property if the time comes they decide to sell up…huge scam…shafting REAL workers .

    Dead cat bounce, prices will drop slowly for 3-4 years.

    Judge the housing market on the yearly figures not monthly .. don’t believe the guff

    1 increase in the last 8 months – 7 of which saw declines.

    Look at the trend people, not just the figure for one month. We still have another 10% to drop at least.

    This is the very definition of a dead cat bounce.

    The single biggest factor for house prices is wages. If wages stagnate and fall (which they are), history shows that house prices ALWAYS follow suit.

    I hope the average house price hits £1,000,000 so that our country will be even richer. Higher house prices indicate a wealthier country.

    At this rate, my sons will never be able to buy a house. 🤬 Just when they think they have a chance, prices go up again. 🤬

    Population growth is in decline. Living standards are down. Mental Illness cases are up. Cancer rates are up. Suicide rates among the young are up.
    It's all linked to Financial Security, Quality of Life and a healthy work/social/family life balance. All of which in the UK is now virtually NONEXISTENT.
    Work to Live, NOT Live-to-Work and make the 1% even richer for little reward and mountains of debt.

    Mortgage applications are not the same as Mortgage approvals. House prices are still way down on last year around here. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Sick of these prices. They all need to come down. I don't care if people lose money, they shouldn't be investments, they should be places to live.

    If you want to sell=good thing
    If you want to buy=bad thing

    I understand you want the value of your property to increase, but when your children and grand children cannot buy homes, what is the point? Additionally, you don't want interest rates low because you want to avoid lending to people that can't afford the home, which would also help bring prices down. When you approve absolutely everyone, regardless of financial health, the market goes bonkers.

    Im in a town of 15000. I dont think a house has sold here for a month. If there have been sales they are VERY thin on the ground. Asking prices can do what they want. Its all marketing led cobblers.

    The average house now costs anywhere between 9 – 15 times the average salary. In the 1990's it was around 3 – 5 time times the average salary. It is not just the UK. In Ireland things are even worse. Same goes for Canada, New Zealand and Australia. We seem to be going back to the days of feudalism. A small elite owning all the land and property in the country.

    The fact that these muppets can't figure out why house prices going up is a bad thing stinks of entitlement.

    House price rises are NEVER a good thing!

    down 4% since peak in 2022, but since then at least 10% cumulative inflation has occurred, so prices really r down about 15%, which is quite significant!
