      Housing associations and pension funds will most likely take up any slack if the market tanks in any big way. They have wads of cash and a need to find better returns.

      I feel sorry for all the poor sods that think that they will be able to grab a nice sensible mortgage and a new house as the market deflates. Unless you have a deposit in the 40% region you are just going to end up renting while even more housing stock vanishes into pension funds.

              Luton, Reading, Slough and Thurrock are Britain's house price hotspots with values in each rising by over 15% in the past year | This is Money

              Suity's house earns more than he does.

                    Bubbles can keep getting bigger. Government has a vested interest in keeping this one expanding.
