She’ll run you through every single step, so you can take what you’ve learned and apply it to your next deal. With this cheat sheet, you’ll never choose the wrong location ever again. In the news This week’s news story may come as a surprise to you, especially in a booming market, but according to This is Money there’s been a surge in property down valuations all across the country. As they’ve reported ‘The bank knocked £35,000 off the price we agreed: Mortgage lenders put the brakes on runaway house prices with a surge of down valuations’ But the shocking headlines don’t stop there, as one of the sub-headlines had us choking on our morning brew as This is Money reports ‘house price growth is slowing amid predictions prices will fall 3% next year’. But what have the guys got to say about these gloomy predictions?
