New house stats are the keys ones folks. Let's hope for a bounce on them.

[mknight] 18/5/2010 14:01

Tend to agree the numbers are good and we should see a move to the upside this afternoon .

[londonfinancial] 18/5/2010 13:43

Numbers are great , you dont want housing starts when there is an over supply Watch for the bounce .

A concern is that the new government is proposing to raise CGT. Not good for investors and housebuilders too.


Higher taxes for a million as George Osborne's emergency Budget hits investors


'CGT on "non-business assets", including second homes, buy-to-let properties and shares, could rise from the current 18 per cent flat rate to a top rate of 40 or even 50 per cent, to fall in line with the higher rates of income tax.

The move could double tax bills for hundreds of thousands of investors and has been denounced as "legalised theft". There has been speculation that the changes may be backdated to stop a "fire sale" of second homes and other assets.

The Liberal Democrats also want the tax to kick in below the current starting level of a £10,100 profit on any investment income. A threshold of £2,000 has been suggested. Deloitte, the accountancy firm, has estimated that that would mean the number of investors forced to pay CGT each year quadrupling to about a million.

It is estimated that 250,000 families own a second home and that there are one million buy-to-let properties. One in six families, a total of 3.75 million people, also own shares.

If the threshold for capital gains eligibility were lowered, it would drag thousands more middle-class investors into tax levels previously designed for much higher earners.

David Cameron has been warned that the decision to raise CGT would be particularly unwelcome for core Conservative supporters, who were unaware when they voted Tory that they would end up with a significant bill on their investments.'

UK inflation numbers much higher than expected.

UK property will once again prove a good hedge against this,as the government inflates its way out of the deficit problem.

Cheers Graham.. good luck on your entry..

Mortgage borrowing by UK house buyers is recovering as the number of loans rose by 25% between February and March to 45,000

Not really true , check out barrat and the home builders , they s¡fell like us yesterday and have bounced the same today

is the housing permit numbers out at 1.30 uk time ?

[grax] 18/5/2010 08:30

It's just so TW isn't it?

Falls further and quicker than any other in the sector and bounces back weaker and shorter than the rest.

Looks like they've still got the cap on at 36p.If it flirts with going close then loads of 3000 & 6000 ish auto sells kick in.

One day folks,one day.

if all else fails there's always the Express. Do the owners have a large propery portfolio?
