Has the bottom hit?

Just looking for peoples opinions on this topic of all topics. I sold my apartment this month after having it on the market for a year without a single offer. The sale has left me with a big negative equity loan to pay off but I decided to get out.

I believe I'll be in a position to buy a house in about 12 months time but am completely paranoid now about things! I accepted an offer lower than my worst nightmare making me think that we have hit bottom. But I am now worried that there will be a jump in prices in the next year. What do people think at this stage? Am I being paranoid?

I knew that was the case for equities but didn't think so for property. I'm sure this will get deleted then so
