I am a first time buyer and 1 1/2 year ago I could get a mortage with 10% deposit
2months ago with touries in power I need 25% deposit!

And why do you think thats is? Its because the banks are fooked and are not willing to gamble as much anymore as they was allowed to under Labour. I now have a 160k mortgage round my neck on a house that was worth around 65k 10 years ago. Its the same house, in fact its deteriated as its aged but Labour thought it was a good idea to let the prices rise. Oh goody, more stamp duty money to us and the banks get to give out big mortgages and make loads of money, win win.

Useless fookwits :doh:

I wonder what would have happened in Labour had got back in? would be still be stuck with Brown or would Ed Millipeed have still taken over, Now that would have been funny, the guy wouldnt have a clue if he tripped over a truckload of them :D

I dont like any political party but the only way of getting shot of labour unfortunatly was to vote conservative. At least we have a choice, in the States you are one thing or another for life it seems :D
 
Erm..your arguments flawed Tusken..if you bought it for 65k 10 years ago and its worth more now then surely thats a good thing? If however you have continually upped your mortgage then surely thats your fault?

People think buying a house is the road to riches..they forget prices go down too..weren't many complaining when their house price jumped and they took the equity out..

stupid people like yourself re-mortage your house so many times and couldn't afford to pay for it!!! And the bullocks about house price increase has been like that forever!! 40 years ago house prices were about £10,000 and the average car was £1,000 was that labour's fault that car prices went up aswell?
Don't be stupid and open your eyes!
We were all fed up with labour I am not denying THAT. But voting CON was not the answer!
 
under a labour govt scottish widows wanted to give me a 103% mortgauge=instant neg equity. the bank crisis was caused by banks.
 
Anyone else think this thread has gone off topic, slightly?

:focus:

So without breaking any forum rules abour promoting other fora, does anyone have a view, hinted at in the programme, on the idea of a system which alerts forum members of stolen Land Rovers (above and beyond the existing threads?)

Tazz
 
Who else made all those goddamn awful housey programs brainwashing all the sheep into doing up their houses to sell on for a vast profit thus fuelling the house price bubble and stoking the ever expanding consumer debt bubble?

Hang on there, “Homes under the hammer” is one of the best programs on the telly. Where else could you see so many ****e thick people on one program; apart from big brother I suppose.
