    So you’re just going to ignore the hard evidence?

    Hmmmm…… well that’s not really true nether :scratch:

    The better your credit score the low the interest rate.   Mortgage  lenders are always looking for ways to increase there profits.  If they can find anyway to increase interest’s rates for home buyers they will take it.  Its a business after all.

    There is absolutely, undeniably a shortage of housing.

    This is a bizzare claim. :wacko:

    The net population growth, is far, far higher than the number of houses being built.

    In 2019 184,000 houses were built.

    Even ignoring that, in 2019 there were 640,370 births and 530,841 deaths, that’s a net increase of 119,529 people.

    In 2020 the net…[Read more]

    Mr Fishy replied to the topic Why are house prices so high? in the forum Getting serious 4 years ago

    Hmmm…..

    If you look on any property website you will find a good section of housing.   There no shortage of supply.  Unfortunately peoples trust in the housing market is so strong they borrow the maximum amount.   The twisted logic is they wont be there more that a few years and the more expensive housing will realize the biggest profit in the…[Read more]

    It would be more accurate to say that cheap loans reduce the value of money in general, it doesnt effect the value of the house.

  • Profile picture of draculina

    draculina replied to the topic Why are house prices so high? in the forum Getting serious 4 years ago

    This is wrong, it would effect lower end housing but not as much.

    The inflationary effect is limited in this case, everyone needs a house and there is little incentive to buy more than one house because its too much of a burden (if its easy to buy houses then renting them out isn’t a viable idea). The only thing it can do is cause people to…[Read more]

    No comodity is exempt from the law of supply and demand.

    If demand grows faster than supply then price goes up.

    I know know why you mentioned borrowing or mortages, they aren’t relevent.

    Increasing the supply of money would increase the demand for higher end housing (very slightly), but it wouldnt have any effect on lower end housing.

    Having fun are we?

    Stop trying to get me to bite.  Its only a matter of time before budha gets another ban and makes a donation to Martin Reeds yacht fund. And tracy’s so poor she needs to flash her bits to get men to buy her accounts  :yahoo:

    So carry on  ;-)

    Not with the housing market, its what people can afford to borrow and the size of there deposits.  If you go on any mortgage calculator website its terrifying how much people can borrow with little or no deposit.  Whole life mortgages means they can borrow a lot more too.

    OK, I’m going to take the key points from that and answer them one by one.

    Kind of…. in the next few years more and more “baby boomers” will entre retirement homes or pass away.  Making up around 21% (14 million) of the UK population and mostly home owners, the UK receives a steady stream of housing coming on to the market.   In the end its…[Read more]

    I would have answer this in the room… but was a little worse for ware after England’s win this evening.

    It is the governments fault but not for the reasons you think, its that old chestnut interest rates.

    The primary driver of prices, not physical supply and demand. You could literally pave the entire country over and put rabbit hutches for…[Read more]
