Are we heading for a housing crash?

Are we heading for a housing crash?

House prices have fallen at the fastest rate in 12 years. Is the great housing boom finally over? And are you worried?

    why is it being reported that house prices are only dropping by miniscule amounts when in reality it is disasterous. The press are also saying that Scotland is bucking the trend. Absolute rubbish. one year ago my chalet bungalow was valued at £245K, yesterday it was valued at £165K that is a 33% drop in value . Thats my pension had it.

    Are you worried?
    Yes

    Love the comments from James colutd1 !
    So where can I buy a Gold house that will still be there if I pop out for an hour or two?
    Seems that would solve the age old problem of needing somewhere to live and investing wisely.........
    Yes we are stuck with it but why the comments James colutd1? sounds a little bitter

    Are you worried?
    No

    80% are not worried, it should read are you daft or not. ill enjoy halifax in october trying to tell you houses are 2% down for october, get real your house has just gone down on averages by 20% in one week , see the stock market , i reckon average house lost £35,000 last week. Doubt any liers are brave enough to tell you the truth , confidence my dear fellows. The fundamentals are good and mrs thatcher was a lovely lady . Mrs thatcher the starter of all this easy money made hers out of air.She worked for walls ice cream, she made mr whippy, half air half ice cream, same price. Thats called making money out of bubbles.. talking of bubbles and blowing em what about kent norfolk and all the rest investing in iceland, we knew they were doomed over a year ago, as for blowing bubbles what happens to poor old west ham.

    Are you worried?
    Yes
