I’m still seeing houses being launched into the market. I just don’t get it. That’s time ticking by where the property can’t be properly viewed. Surely it would be better to launch once this has sorted itself?

It would help if they change the way surveyors comment on gas and electricity. They generally automatically give a red warning simply because they are not qualified to comment on it. Either remove the gas and electricity section or stop grading it and put a comment stating they are not qualified to grade it

Well my understanding is the banks have a duty to obtain a reasonable figure to avoid being sued by the former owner. Cheap sales of repos might have been the rage 20 odd years ago but I thought that had stopped due to a court case by a previous owner against a bank.

If I’ve understood that right he is simply suggesting a return to the days when the council built houses. Most council houses have that obvious look about them but they were solidly built. One of the biggest crimes ever was the transferring of council houses to housing associations and the other was allowing tenants to buy them at reduced prices. My family benefited from buying a council house but I don’t agree with it. Finally why has the likes of Thames Water teamed up to sell land to the Berkeley Group? If the council still built houses, that land could have gone to them

For some people they are probably gambling that the property market will go down more than the savings on owning against renting. That might not be true for all the country but in the south-east the market is struggling where I am and prices dropping so being in rented isn’t so bad for the moment.

Can see this story generating lots of comments. Good point by Rob. Also if the land was owned by a “regular” person, would it have been disclosed? Of course it wouldn’t. Imagine if the buyer of the house was a traveller and the agent disclosed the plot next door was owned by travellers. The agent would then be sued for discrimination against travellers!
