    House prices rise in June

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6268272.stm

    House price inflation now at a cool 10.7%

    The BTL brigade must all be millionaires now. Beats contracting for a living.

    Paper millionaires - they'd have to sell up to realise the profit.

      If they have any sense, that's what they should be doing very soon.

          3? seems a bit precarious at the moment
          How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

              I'm thinking about moving in a few months; would this not be a good time to buy?

              It's difficult to know if it will ever peak or if it's just costing you more by waiting.

                I'll also be looking to move in about 12 months time though, but hte places I'm looking at for the moment are around the 900k mark, it is difficult to know if prices will rise or drop any...

                  It will never peak, just rise at 3x inflation for ever. Soon we will all be billionaires. Watch out Gates!

                    Not quite up to your standards; will be around the £250-300k mark :-)

                    Where is it you're looking?
