What’ll happen to house prices?


Poll Started 06 April 2009:

Over the last year according to Nationwide house prices have dropped 15.7% while Halifax says 17.5%. Yet in the last month Nationwide has reported a rise of 0.9%, compared to Halifax's 1.9% drop.

Sentiment is a crucial part of house prices e.g. when people think they’ll drop, many hold off from buying, meaning less demand and prices do drop.

So what do you think will happen to UK house prices over the next 12 months?
