We finally got our offer accepted on a house after looking for a year. I think it was just pure luck and coincidence, the people in the house can’t move out until February/March next year as their waiting on their new house being built and our lease for our rental isn’t up until then so we couldn’t move out till around that time anyway. We ended up in a bit of a bidding war for it but was so worth it, we’ve been renting for years and sick of it

congrats
hope it all goes smoothly for you.
I've noticed the same this week actually, although some of the reductions are pretty small and pointless.
Now the money taps are being turned off things seem a bit more logical. Although I'd probably still wait until early next year.

I saw a mortgage advisor on Tik Tok saying that valuations are coming back low, no wonder, houses are going on way over what theyre worth 
Were they dancing while dishing out advice?
There’s definitely been a drop in prices here too. A lot less going on the market and they seem to be taking longer to shift!
I have seen a few flats I like but I still think they are hugely overpriced compared to pre COVID so going to hang on for another month or two before I start to view.
My dad pointed out the other day that the market does tend to slow over the winter anyway, so it will be interesting to see what happens to prices come spring 2022.

Haha no. Shes actually quite good. I dont seem to get any dancing videos anymore... just dog videos
and other random stuff
They’ve completed wrecked my home town with it too. Absolutely criminal. It’s not even stopping anywhere near my home town - and they’ve taken out acres and acres of green belt land for it too.
“"I'll slow down at 30, I can't retire completely then I'd be bored, but I'd like to get a sail-boat like my grandad and pop over to Italy for the odd six months.”
he has very unrealistic expectations on the (net) rental yields those two £120k properties will get him 
Articles like this are so misleading. He wouldn’t have got a mortgage at 19 - unless he had a large deposit and a guarantor. What kind of job did he have at 19 that the lender based the decision on? What a load of garbage. Josh Parrott has well off parents and that’s about it.
So when he was 19 he managed to save up a sizeable amount all by himself to either get a BTL mortgage or buy it outright by working part time in between studies? Aren’t btl mortgages a bit harder to get? What jobs was he doing to earn that much part time? Something doesn’t add up here. If it was that easy everyone would do it.
I love how these articles always have to throw in a little dig about how much they’ve ‘sacrificed’ compared to their mates who just fritter money away on booze and clothes. As if they are the only young person in the world to have saved up for a house and everyone else is just dumb and bringing it on themselves
There’s nothing worse than smug people who own multiple properties banging on about how easy it is to get on the property ladder. They are part of the problem.

House Prices #2 Property market, buying and selling
Time for a new thread, the graph kinda says it all. House prices fell 9k in a month as the stamp duty changes end.
