welcome to a new blog dedicated to the UK and global housing markets.

At the moment there is a lot of interest in the housing market because of fears about what may happen to house prices.

The housing market has always been a popular topic of conversation, mainly because homeowners would great joy talking about how much house prices have risen by. However, first time buyers who couldn’t get on the property market would despair at the difficulty of getting a house.

In the UK, there has been a popular belief that house prices cannot fall because house prices always keep going up. However, the experience of Japan and more recently America suggests that this is not the case.

This blog will be looking at issues surrounding the housing market and whether prices are likely to fall or not.
