What's going on in your area?
Our little Close in Surrey has gone beserk in the last 12 months. Our neighbours house has just sold for an absurd amount of money which (as long as it completes) will mean we've had a 30% increase in house prices in 12 months in our Road based on actual sales for identical properties.
Is this a southern thing or are other areas of the country experiencing this kind of bubble also?
We were considering moving in the next two years but the properties available around here have risen to classic car like prices. Lots of money being asked and paid for very ordinary properties.
I'm interested to see what effect the post April big predicted "Buy to Let sell off" creates, if it even happens at all this year.
We've pretty much decided we'd like to build our own house and we're in the infancy of searching for potential non existent plots. It's really not promising.
There has been some "affordable" housing spring up in our area this year. However "affordable" is a relative thing as these starter homes are £425K.
Who'd live in Surrey eh?
