I don't doubt what you say but it is interesting to note that Hampshire was number 7 in number of houses sold last year Jan 2007 - December 2007. Populations are not considered in these figure so the rate could be low but Greater Manchester, Merseyside, and West Midlands are all below Hants. Also Hampshire was number 10 in the price increase in 2007 showing a 7% rise. I have noticed though, that nearly all the counties with high growths in 2007 suffered from drops in Q1 2008 so water is finding its own level I guess.kendo wrote:Umm, the credit crunch in the U.k in June the number of new mortgages 24,000 the lowest number for 20 years.![]()
I have had my house on the market for nearly 5 months have dropped the price 25k nobody viewing only had 7 viewings the whole time.
Looking at the stats on Right Move last week, only 117 houses have sold in my post code this yearthe only reason i am going to leave it on the market is i have paid £350 plus v.a.t for the HIP (home information pack) i think this crunch is going to go on for a few years and even the government have got there forcasts wrong.

When I was in the market for a Condo in Hua Hin 6 years ago the only three things that affect price were location, location and location.
The condo facilities, outside appearance and interior decor would get the property sold quicker but did not have any noticeable effect on the price. Of course in those days a one bedroom condo with partial sea view 100 metres from the beach could be bought for 500,000 Baht so price differentials were harder to spot.
Does any body have a URL for the condos mentioned by the OP.
