"recovered rapidly after a very short space of time,"

Only after they virtually doubled the number of shares in circulation.

Non-EU migration in to the UK at the highest level for 14 years.

It's ..taking back control in action ).


Also the government relaxing rules on non-EU doctors,
allowing more to work in the NHS.

Brexit eh, wonderful, everyone happy now.

These stats have always been at odds with the Brexit story more disinformation peddled to the masses

the serious migration numbers have always been non-EU and had very little to do with the free movement and everything to do with UK government policy.

I have never had a problem with EU free movement for people working, I think it is a good thing and, overall it has made us a better economy. I have also benefitted from it personally as I work outside UK sometimes.

The age demographic of the non-EUs is also interesting in assessing what their likely contribution is going to be.

When I look at those immigration figures today,I would suggest that the primary concern of the U.K. Brexiteers is not being addressed.

This is one of those times when the markets are not only feral but often irrational,fear and greed.There's every likelihood that things for UK domestics could get worse before they get better with the current lack of clarity re Brexit.The recent decline in prices of good quality housebuilders has got nothing to do with the evaluation of the micro competence or "road worthiness" of those enterprises.Yet,in consumer societies like the U.K.,confidence can make the difference between success and failure.Until this bloody Brexit business has resolution,the stockmarket will drift domestic stocks lower if only for a lack of buyers sitting on their hands.

Dr.

The game is to use more people on a single site to deliver more units in one go. Sell as much off plan and then build it out quickly in line with what you can sell. If you want to do 50 units.... sell what you can and then build out together with multiple build teams. In and out.

No harrow is where a major builder has a regional HQ

I am not sure there has been much of an expansion yet. We are sort of crawling back to 2007 :)

Taylor Wimpey were in debt before the financial crisis but recovered rapidly after a very short space of time, my own company suffered for about six months & has boomed ever since, well ran companies can adapt very quickly to changing demand & I am confident Tw will. For those of us that bought in the low 30's & still holding have had an exceptionally good ride & have more than covered our initial investment in dividends alone.

People forget slavery was abolished some years, ever since the rich have burnt the midnight oil trying to come up with ideas as to how they getp back to those hurrly burly days of having someone sweat for you for next to nothing. Finally they found a way they call it Britexit. The rich folk want a no deal... as that way they can finally put you into poverty as most of the ordinary folk were already in eyeballs of dept and only to find any investments they had went down the toilet.....caused by the stock plummeting due to no deal, the system is made up by the rich to take you out and be a slave to them.........

Soon 4 - would you have a car or a house? How many cars are actually owned these days anyway ? most people lease these days, the problem with cars is over supply & cheap interest rates have saturated the markets it was bound to drop at some point, However I don't think the same can be said for the housing market as I don't believe we are anywhere near to meeting demand required for the years ahead & unlike car production you can't just press a button & two hours later out pops a house, It would take years to build production & despite a dip perhaps next year I see future governments giving even more incentives to keep house building moving, IMHO any down turn/reduced production in house building for any prolonged period will make it virtually impossible for the government to ever meet its new housing targets resulting in house prices spiraling out of control, I think there are to many people that are blinkered by brexit to be able to look at the longer term picture & to perhaps fully understand how short of homes this country will be in the next 20 years.I wish anyone that wants to get onto the property ladder all the look in the world & hope you can get a house at a knock down price but sadly I don't see the under £250k house falling very far ,but you may pick up the odd million pound house a bit cheaper

12-18 months max cycle lasting side.

Then it's recession or worse.

Depends on how badly the global debt bubble bursts.

If you put Brexit completely to one side, how long can the current economic
expansion last?. We are nearly 10 years in to this cycle.
On average post WW11, we have experienced a recession every 8 years.
Now while I don't think we are heading for anything like the financial crisis
again, it's perhaps worth remembering that recessions have not been abolished.

..we will never return to the old boom and bust - Gordon Brown October 2008.

He never said the ..we have abolished boom and bust line, although it's oft misquoted.

Interesting reading Marksp2011 and Jugears - more interesting than any media article.

Mark - I assume speeding up is presently taking up slack. It surely comes with penalties, and a head-ache for project managers as you often need slack time for cement/plaster etc to dry before next phase and having several trades in at same time can mean each worker is less efficient working on top of each other. Also, it gives the impression workforce have to be more mobile. I don't doubt what you say, it just surprises me. I also thought builders were pretty cash flush, hence the special divs, so capital employed has a cost, but not critically so re working practices.

Jugears: "pre tender meetings indicated that the number of sites planned would be increasing after Brexit"
Their t/o for next year is not even 1% more, so suspect it's not so much more sites/sales on average, but a re-commence (increase) following Brexit wind-down.

Marksp2011 you mention Harrow, I have supplied joinery to the school there on many occasions for different contractors, However London & the south housing only makes up a very small amount of our turnover & this is an area I have said before that I think will be hit by a housing slow down, as for the rest of the uk IMHO we will see house prices increase steadily as more people become savey to a better way of living than in London & the South.

Spoon you mention land bank decreasing in value, Land never really decreases for very long & has been one of the most appreciating assets I own, one of my plots is worth 1500% more than it was 30 years ago & that's with out planing permission. We are an Island & building land is disappearing fast ,so I think they can afford to sit on there land bank without loosing to much sleep, If I am correct most of TW houses are pre-sold before being built, House builders don't just build developments on spec just because they think they are building in the right place doesn't mean there customers do, its a bit more involved than that. you say they loose all there labour? the majority of there site labour are subcontract & can hire & fire when they like.

Let’s talk cars.

Sales have held up to a degree this year up until the last few months.

Now running at 20% down

All those sales guys working their nuts off for a sale, that’s not walking through the door.

They don’t need to build, agreed.

However

They lose all their labour contractors.

They take massive hits on WIP and more so in their Landbank.

The shares Tank.

They don't need to build.. they can slow down and restrict supply. yes top line falls but everything I have seen and heard tells me they learned a lesson and there wont be mad M&A or building at a loss. Why do it?

Jugs

You have hit the nail squarely. What I am talking about massively shortens that 18 month- 2 year window so they dont get caught with pants down. I was having a beer in harrow the other night and they are doing it too (I am assuming that location will mean something to you)

To sum up.

Any new homebuyer / investor is NOT buying value.

He is paying 15P in every pound to the developer.

(EasyJet takes about £8.00 per flight in profit.)

(Tesco might make £2.00 on your weekly shop.)

To those here who think that those 15% clear margin profit will last for ever.

They will not.

That’s the fall in prices that they can cope with and Break Even.

The builders start to slash prices first by tiny amounts, then 3% and 5% just to stay in the game.

Now joe public walks into the show house, and wants 10% off, carpets, and a free furnishing package.

GAME OVER

Marks2011 my family company has bee producing timber based products for the construction & housing industry for 57 years & can count Taylor Wimpey or George Wimpey (as they were then know) as a customer for the last 30 years & That's not the picture we are getting from the major house builders, The last round of pre tender meetings indicated that the number of sites planned would be increasing after Brexit that said we tend to get involved 18 months-2 years before a development gets of the ground from initial costings to orders being placed so maybe things have changed recently but the general optimism among my customers hasn't changed from a year ago
