    No, they all work from home.

        Since I'm benched currently, our house is likely to earn more than I will this year

          That's their projection for all of 2015, Halifax are showing a 9% increase on this time last year.
          My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.

            OK, I call BS on this BS report.

            Got the best kind of prove - anecdotal: a few houses I am tracking did not change the price over last few years, in fact most of them did not sell at all, the price was around £2 mln and still is now.

              If a house is on sale for £ 2 mln in Birmingham, there is every possibility its a chancer looking for mugs like you who will pay 10 times the market price.

                  If the house price had dropped dramatically after the crash, then it should be increasing in value a lot more than 6% this year

                  We were lucky to buy near the bottom of the market, and from people we knew were desperate to sell

                  So like my property which increased in value by about 35% in the nine months we've owned, it doesn't mean that is happening across the UK

                  It depends on the local area, and the relative value of the house to others in the area
                  Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

                  No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

                    They've been looking for mugs for the last few years, those houses don't sell quickly here

                      Latest report from Bloomberg:

                      "U.K. house prices will rise faster than previously anticipated this year and mortgage lenders, real-estate agents and industry bodies are warning the acute property shortage is set to worsen"
