I was looking to move last year and everything that went on the market was gone a day later. Curiously I asked if they went for asking price and the estate agent laughed as said no they were going £30k over.
I’m in the suburbs of a city but it’s not exactly a sought after city. So whilst house prices are expected to come down…. They are likely to just come down to what they were one or two year ago. Unless you buy a house and one year later want to sell it…. I don’t think many people are gonna have issues.
I got mine about a year and a half ago and you barely had time to blink before houses were snapped up. Paid over the odds by about 10k probably but just glad to have it done. I’ll have to stay here a while now because I hated the whole experience!
House prices have been getting out of hand for many years. Even where I live you couldn’t afford my house on the average wage living alone, it’s far too much unless you have a decent deposit.
There’s nothing that will change. Prices will keep rising and less people will be able to afford to buy.
Wake me up when prices are going down. £14 more is still £14 on top of something I already can’t afford.

Those are certainly all words.
On the back of a record rise the previous year.
