House Prices
I’m not sure what it’s like in the rest of the world but in the UK where I live house prices are just stupid, see the graph below for how house prices have risen.
To be honest the hardest thing is for new buyers, with the average house prices around £130K but yet the average wage in the UK is around £14-15 how can anyone get a house, mortgage lender will only lend you from 3-4.25 your wage so if you’ve got a coupl with combined earnings of £30K then they may just beable to purchase, but at a struggle if your mortagage is £700-800 a month, then you’ve got bills then how can you survive?
Add your comments, is the house market struggling? are more people renting? are house prices set to fall?
It’s back to you!

House prices in the UK are ridiculous, i’m not on a bad wage compared to most people and struggled like hell to get a house, there of course cheaper areas you can choose to move to, but we shouldn’t have to think like that, look at america, for the same price you get a 2 up 2 down in the UK, you can get a fourbedroom house with swimming pool in the US, the trouble now is with being on the property ladder, i don’t want house prices to go down, just wages going up (If your listening boss!)

Don’t even get me started on the subject of house prices me and the fellar are struggling just to keep a house, (Although i do spend most of the time in the bedroom), but we have two wages and each month is hard when the mortgage goes out.

The number of different international market which effect house prices is one reason why UK prices are so high, John’s comment about america is completly right you get twice as much as in the UK.
April 23rd, 2008 at 5:08 pm
I reckon prices will drop by 10% by the end of 2008 with a modest fall in 2009. In the long term property prices will always go up.
May 23rd, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Well, the same situation is happening in the USA right now. The thing though is there is a credit crisis going on right now. People taking out house loans that they could not afford, therefore losing their home.

The result is that it becomes increasingly expensive to live in a city and especially a larger percentage of income goes to housing. A balance will be reached, but except for occasional local craziness where a particular fad neighborhood gets way out of line, or a mill town loses its mill, don’t expect a general crash in house prices.

To me these days the housing market is just all over the place! Seems to me like it’s best just to hope that you bought your house at the right time to be able to rest comfortably, but you know… over time everything will take care of it self, as least history has shown as that with inflation.
Till then,

I don’t think you’ll find that special price you’re looking for in the bay area anytime soon. Be really careful with any deals you see or heard about. Make certain everything is exactly the way you want it to be.
November 13th, 2010 at 10:41 am
That is quite a sharp amount of variancy. But I agree that it’s definitely surprising that the prices are so high. One hopes they come down again to something normal. But hard to be sure really.

Your best (and possibly only) leverage is to walk away from the deal. If you and he can not agree, look somewhere else. As a last resort you can tell him that you will pay so much and not a penny more and he has 4 days to accept your final offer. If he declines you have to look elsewhere.
January 5th, 2011 at 10:22 am
like you don ‘t want the builder to actually make anything for himself. I see this selfish attitude all the time on the part of buyers. They only look at the actual cost of the item being sold. It doesn’t seem to occur to them that the seller is selling as a job or profession and he has to feed his family and pay his mortgage etc. etc. on what he makes from his selling.

For instance in my tow the house prices continue to rise even though the average salary is too low to rent let alone buy a house. Also people are being made redundant in manufacturing and there is no new work for them.. Is it just a matter of time before we have a crash.Thanks
April 10th, 2011 at 9:56 am
House prices are unlikely to fall dramatically over the next few months - there simply isn’t enough property on the market to sustain hungry buyers. The time to watch will be when the reluctant landlords put their houses on the market and then there could be a risk of there being too many properties on the market.Thanks

From 1997 to 2007, the average price of a house increased exponentially from £58k to £198k. Even during the worst recession since 1929, prices have only fallen to £161k, which is still an extraordinary level given that the average wage in the UK is only £23k. Due to the fact that millions of young first time buyers have taken out crippling joint income mortgages, will these people now be unable to afford to have children?

The housing market is quite subdued at the moment and will remain so until the banks start lending again. Its so tough for 1st time buyers to get on the housing ladder, but no doubt this demand will build and fuel another mini-boom when they can get the finance.
