  • really? 650sqft for nearly half a mil sounds like an expensive prison cell to me. FTBers really need to stop buying property so this here bubble can hurry up and burst.

  • Speaking as a born-and-raised Londoner, I'd say there were a lot of people worth having a go at for the state of London's property market, but I think first time buyers are very far down on that list.

  • Depends what sort. Agree it’s hard to blame people who have been saving for a deposit for 5-10 years.

    But the bank of mum / dad / granny FTBs (ie people like me) cause massive inflation and drive prices out of whack with local earnings.

  • yeah theres a whole load of people to blame but someone is still buying these boxes at half a mil. People are locking themselves into a life time of debt. you only have to see how much these places sold for 6 or 7 years ago to see how crazy this shit is. A debt deflation is underway and it Will hit people like a bit of 2 x 4 in the face. People will blame brexit but thats a small fish in the ocean of Shit the world economy is in. Anyway i'll stop banging on again about house prices. Rectory road is a great station to live near.
