Owning your own home

Trust me, when you come to want to move - you are going to give MANY shits about house prices.
Negative equity and no other savings = no move.
Equity in the house destroyed by falling prices and more stringent deposit requirements from the banks = no move.

No i won't because prices will move up and down relative to my property.

I don't have negative equity or have any risk of it.

So I don't care about house prices.
