The old thread seems to have dropped off so I'm starting another!

Todays Land Registry figures show prices in Brighton & Hove fell 0.6% in December. They fell in all types of property from detached houses to flats. As the land-reg figures lag the other house price indicies because they are based on completions, expect plenty more falls in the months to come!

Brighton & Hove is saturated with Buy to Lets, much more than most towns. Combined with the huge rise in distressed sellings forecast for the BTL market and hard pressed Londoners selling their second homes, the collapse in prices will gather pace just like it did in the early 90s.

Watch this space!!

Oops..! I feel like I was sitting with all my mates in the pub, popped to the loo and when I came out they had all moved on to a party without telling me!

Lots of "New Price" on the most recent listings in Argus Property supplement, particularly Fox and Sons, and they are not upward revisions.

Very slow here but there does seem to be a final ralisation that the silly season with prices is over.It will be interesting to see what the new school places allocation does to the rip off that is fiveways and preston park.No guarantee of a place should surely see the prices tumble as the houses are very average but at least 100k over the equivalent out of the catchment area.I near;y bought recently but the fear in the agents faces as they fed us endless 'no crash in brighton' bs convinced my husband that we should hang on

You are right to hang on and see. I have seen the amount of property on the market in my search almost double since the summer madness. Prices on a handful of houses have fallen but there is still seems to be not alot selling.

I am sure in the next 6 months we will start to see more widespread falls as reality starts to sink in and mortgage lending dries even futher.

This is just the start.B@H has a long way to go yet.
