Why demand has fallen for houses outside of most peoples price range? Hmm, let me think.
Zoopla are full of crap though. The market has been chilling since March. Budget has just triggered further anxiety.
> “That balance is welcome for many purchasers, particularly first-time buyers who appear undeterred by April’s increase in stamp duty and have benefited from lower interest rates
Why they refer to it as increase. It was. Temporar relief which labour did not renew. Wish they’d word this properly.
Cue loads of comments about how it’s because the county is going to the dogs and the billionaires have stolen all our money.
Read the article. Christ.
It’s because people who want to buy homes over 500k are putting it off until after the autumn budget. There’s speculation that there may be changes to stamp duty that would benefit people buying these homes. So people think it might be better to wait a couple of months.
Well i went to look at one then saw it was £18-20k in just stamp duty before i’d factored in any solicitors and moving costs. So…fuck that i’ll stay put.
A complete mystery. Up there with the likes of the Loch Ness Monster. I doubt anyone here will ever be able to solve it…
Realistically a lot of people (outside of London) can’t afford a half a million pound mortgage.
I live in a sleepy Somerset village and the see houses going up for 750/800 and there are some 1mil plus, with youngish families and I see them and think, how the f has that happened?
With a young family ourselves and not pulling a bad joint income. My wife is keen to move to a bigger place, which would be nice, but I’m happy to save and save and save until we have too.
Ah I see The Onion’s made it’s way to the UK.
What…
This is a real article?
We’re doomed.
There’s a home for sale in my village for that price. It’s a lovely home with a decking that overlooks the river, gigantic drive, large garage and a few extras. I do not see how it sells in a town where the next expensive home for sale doesn’t crack 250,000.
Well that’s the new, lower threshold at which all first time buyer support is scrapped.
The stamp duty hikes were of course going to affect the market.
The biggest purchasers of these houses soon will be corporations.
