I have just put a deposit on a new house and I am mulling over whether I should hold on to my current house beyond the completion date of the new house (May/June '07). I am hoping that the slow-down in the housing market is temporary. Will the maturation of SSIAs cause a further spike in prices? Are Bertie and co hoping to buy the election by doing some to reform Stamp Duty or help out First Time Buyers? I know that Springtime is traditionally the best time to sell but Autumn is usually stong as well and there are few properties around me moving at the moment. Any ideas guys?
