Housing prices will stagnate for the next 15 to 20 years.
There will be no drop with interest rates as they are.

Even though I let my first house i'm the least savvy person on the planet when it comes to investments, at the time my job changed and I expected to return to my home expect that never happened.
I think focus should be on earnings and not house prices, even if they have run away with themselves a little. The rate earnings have increased over the last 15 years are the biggest con IMO. My first job as a graduate started around 18K (13 years ago), I've seen the same job advertised around 22K today. True inflation is not even matched with that increase.
Over the last 15 years the reward for increased labour has been to take home less and less. What an insult to the ordinary man and woman on the street whilst the bureaucrats have been lining their pockets with factious expenses.
What we need is a full blown revolution."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
