But still 50 year old Carling drinkers will support Brexit being economically beneficial because they cant accept they were wrong haha Edited by SeagullHunter (23 Mar 2018 1.46pm) It's nothing to do with Brexit! If you can explain how then I'd like to hear it.

[Link] [Link] "A significant effect of Brexit is subdued investor confidence" to add: - drop in demand for London housing as a result of more stringent regulations on EU nationals purchasing property etc. - Sterling 6% weaker since the vote to leave (which although should entice investment, UK/London has lost its allure) - list goes on I'm not saying its purely Brexit. Of course the fears of rates hikes, rise in inflation and stretched income all have played their parts. Im='m purely saying Brexit has played a large toll in the damaging of the economy (and the London/UK housing market). For young people like myself, seeing the prices drop are a good thing, I am purely making a point that Brexit clearly hasn't benefited those it aimed to - and the facts coming out of Cambridge Analytica scandal point to more issues with a fragmented British society (easy to target racists to sway their votes), rather than London house prices.

If you take average spend - mortgage interest has been low for a long time, add supermarket price competition and pretty low oil prices for a prolonged period - for most people income has not been hit like it was in the 70's for example.

Originally posted by PalazioVecchio but still not yet a crash !! [Link] As I said, I strongly believe prices to continue to fall over next 2-3 year period, probably steady in the Medium Term. We all know the £ was overvalued so its devaluation wasn't a surpise for some, the same with the london housing market. For me its been well overdue and now with the exit of many EU nationals, prices will continue to fall with increasing supply and decreasing demand. Dont let Cabaye go

General pattern is London will dip slightly, South East will remain stable with no real growth whilst the rest of the country will remain strong with slight rises. "It feels much better than it ever did, much more sensitive." John Wayne Bobbit

We looked at South Cave; North Ferriby and Beverly and they were all lovely. people were really friendly and the house prices ridiculously cheap in comparison with down here. Brand new 5 bed house, 2.2k sq ft £425k. We looked at both brand new and old houses (which we prefer due to the land that comes with them and the room proportions) There's plenty of building going on, both residential and commercial so definitely looks like a place on the up.
