No such thing as a council house nowadays, is there ?

[sundaymonday] 24/10/2010 18:29

They should have evicted all council house tenants who inherited their council house

and

means tested current council house tenants, ie if they qualified in the past because of low income but in the meantime did well in life, they should get evicted.

Why should we subsidise housing for people who don't need subsidising?

Could Spending Review Kick Start Housing Market?

Yesterday's spending review announced some welcomed good news for borrowers which may kick start a recovery in the housing market. The Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML), the industry's trade body, felt that the plans announced in the spending review were a positive step towards stability in the market.

The industry has had a turbulent time recently with mortgage approvals reaching a ten year low and house prices dropping month on month. Many have blamed consumer concerns in the lead up to the spending review announcement. Now that the government has announced its plans, its hoped that the market will pick up and start to recover by the start of 2011.

The Council of Mortgage Lenders welcomes the lib-con coalition government's plans to extend the temporary concessions on mortgage interest. They hope that this will entice buyers back onto the market and bolster market confidence which has taken a battering during the downturn.

The extension will mean that the £200,000 limit and the thirteen week waiting period which is down from thirty nine weeks will be in place until January 2010.

Cuts threaten a double-dip recession for construction

One thing is certain, the stock of properties available both to buy and rent won't change overnight. Zoopla's Leeming makes the important point that, 'if house-building targets were missed in times of plenty, it seems very unlikely that the new higher house building target of 150,000 affordable homes will be achieved by tinkering with the rents paid by social tenants - and when council budgets are going to be even more stretched.'

But not everyone is negative about future provision of affordable homes. 'For new homes, the reductions in local authority budgets may well make the New Homes Bonus a significant enticement to overcoming objections to development,' said Robert Bartlett, CEO of property agent Chesterton Humberts.

Charles Mills of Knight Frank echoes this view. 'Given the absence of new home building and the lowest level of delivery since 1924 the mention of the New Homes Bonus Scheme seems like a real incentive for some local authorities to encourage house building in their areas. The proposed 150,000 new affordable (intermediate rent) homes hints at the need for local authorities to take a more active role in their delivery.'

[sundaymonday] 23/10/2010 17:33

shaws - stick to Tesco, you are not made of the right fibre to invest in TW.

Bye bye.

[sir ramsey] 23/10/2010 17:31

You all used to be pals on the thread

Whats happened, OMG thats why

[shaws37] 23/10/2010 17:29

the reason i worry is because i've been shafted on an aim stock and lost a lot, and i mean a lot - so naturally i worry. Hope you understand.

[careful] 23/10/2010 17:22

why worry.
if your house is worth 300k and you owe 150k
you have a net worth of 150k and you owe 150k.

no problem. 100% gearing.

[smurfy2001] 23/10/2010 17:16

You forgot the 50p+ of NAV.

Vodfone are multi-billions in debt, does not make investors and pension companies worry because they make a profit and pay down their debt, just like Taylor WImpey are doing now.

Show a little intelligence Shaws37

Market cap of 700m, debt of 600m. When you look at it that way it's a worry or is it just me who worries perhaps. :(

[the disciple] 23/10/2010 17:08

barf , your dam right ,they havn't got a clue.

[jab118] 23/10/2010 12:14

shaw, short the sh*t out of it, it's called hedging you long position...;-)

[shaws37] 23/10/2010 11:42

Anyone here trade using CFD's ? Any advice ? I've created an account with IG but not used it yet,

[barf2] 23/10/2010 11:08

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Shame that these analysts/brokers don't make comment on their previous price targets.

'Taylor Wimpey downgraded to hold from buy at Investec, target price 25p down from 41p.'

You'd think they would say 'sorry about that last target,we were wrong but hey, it's all a bit 'finger in the air really' we're only guessing same as everyone else'
