Tell me about it just thinking about putting ours up is stressing me. We will though especially after yesterday travelling 22 miles to my daughter's only to find she was delayed at a school government meeting, travelling back because the mrs57 was ill, then back again after she had taken her tablets and felt better.

It is stressful. Not the best market at the moment. Finding somewhere else to live will be our problem. You are always battling against London money down here. The plan is to sell it and move out and put cash in the bank, same as we did when we moved down here. That's a strange feeling walking away from a nice house into rented accommodation and hoping the market doesn't suddenly go flying up. Best of luck if you do.

My brother sold his house in Sydney on the basis that property prices had gone mad and he was getting out at the top. After a slight pause, they kept going up and up. Eventually he bought somewhere else.

Eventually the housing market in Australia will burst spectacularly but it's hard to tell when these things are going to happen.

It's the same old con of everyone objecting to any new development so the city is stuck with obsolete infrastructure and insufficient housing to meet it's growing needs. There are lots of cheap houses if you want to do a 90 minute commute into the city every morning.
