Thanks for the replies. I know it's impossible to give a % since houses vary so much I was just curious to see if anyone bought recently and what they offered.
Prices are still falling, and since these are "asking" prices only, I was wondering if I could get one for around 220k - I know this is nearly 20% below asking, but the asking price of 1 has already fallen 12% in 3 months. Is that a good thing or a bad thing though?? I find it very difficult to know if an asking price is sensible or overvalued. All i know is what I can afford and obviously want to best I can get for that money.
A number of houses are in and around the same price, but they are hard to compare as they all are all different - ie. one is large, with great potential but in disrepair, another is a good deal smaller with no real scope to extend, but is in great condition... so i am not really comparing like with like.
