something similar is happening to the oil and gas sector now!! Buy them dead cheap... sit on them for 4-5 years and wait for a 5 fold plus rise!!

[shaf200] 04/12/2014 16:23

Not getting carried away... I bought 5K's worth they were 24p!! The rest is history!

[homeboy35] 04/12/2014 13:52

Don't get carried away...

Have been in TW for 4 1/2 years now, and it takes time, LOL!

[shaf200] 04/12/2014 13:42

[cockneyrebel] 04/12/2014 10:21

This is the trendline to be tested imo:

I'd normally take a 5% profit, especially on a 24hr old purchase that's not even paid for, but I'm hoping for a Christmas rally :))

These should be in a win win situation here if the economy remains decent. If house prices keep rising it is good for them but if government finally did the right thing and changed policy to increase the housing stock them it should still be good for them.

0920 GMT [Dow Jones]--After a choppy second quarter UBS notes that the UK house-building sector has rebounded strongly, as rate-hike expectations have been pushed further out. The bank sees a potential total sector return on a 12 month view of around 20%, which if correct would bring total outperformance vs FTSEAllshare to 14% YTD. UBS has a buy rating on all 7 stocks it covers in the sector, upgrades target prices on 6, with Berkeley Group (BKG.LN) left unchanged at 2830p, while Persimmon (PSN.LN) is raised by +13% to 1640p, Bovis Homes (BVS.LN) +10% to 1100p and Redrow (RDW.LN) +10% to 370p.

Aye, very strong.

happy Xmas to all house buyers ;-)

[cockneyrebel] 04/12/2014 08:52

Breaking to new highs - mirroring that lovely bowl on BDEV too.

Best two charts in the builder sector imo.

2015 special dividend of £200 million (c.6.16 pence per share), will be paid in July 2015, subject to shareholder approval. The DRIP will not be made available in respect of special dividend payments.

[lostuser] 04/12/2014 08:47

I believe it's 6.1p next year to be paid in July

[jugears] 04/12/2014 08:44

Any one no when the special dividend is paid & how much it will be.

Pound and house builders rally on Autumn Statement

Pound and house builders rally on Autumn Statement
The pound has rallied after chancellor George Osborne announced stronger growth for the UK economy as he delivered his Autumn Statement.

Osborne announced the Office for Budget Responsibility was forecasting 3% growth in 2014, up from its previous 2.7% forecast. Growth for next year has been forecast at 2.4%, 2.2% is forecast for 2016 and 2.4% for 2017.

Osborne's commitment to bring the UK budget deficit down from £91.3 billion this year to £75.9 billion in the next also strengthened sterling, which rose from a low of $1.5618 this morning to $1.5703.

'GBP bulls liked this austerity talk from Osborne,' said Kathleen Brooks, research director at Forex.com.

House builders also rose, as the chancellor outlined an overhaul to the system of stamp duty tax on house purchases, claiming it will benefit 98% of home buyers. Among house builders to rise were:

Persimmon (PSN) +1% to £15.40
Bovis Homes (BVS) +1.8% to 873.5p
Redrow (RDW) +1.1% to 282.1p
Crest Nicholson (CRST) +1.2% to 362.5p
Taylor Wimpey (TW) +1.7% to 132.5p
However Berkeley (BKGH), which is focused on the London housing market likely to be worst hit by Osborne's changes, fell 2.8% to £24.74. The chancellor said only those buying properties worth £937,000 or more would be worse off as a result of the changes.

Estate agent Foxtons (FOXT), which is also focused on the London market, fell 2.1% to 152.1p.

Two of Britain's biggest housebuilders will re-enter the FTSE 100 later this month following the latest reshuffle of the blue-chip index.

Barratt Developments and Taylor Wimpey will replace two stocks hit by the recent sell-off in commodities.

The companies' shares have gained 30% and 20% respectively this year on the back of Britain's rising property market.
