With growing debt and easy credit, do you think the housing market has finally peaked and is in for a crash landing?

The weekend and my patner thinks it will be fine have seen loads of houses up for.
My patner thinks it has to end somewhere have been saying for auction around by me where first time buyers are really struggling think we are all in for big bang.

ik hoop zo dan ik een grotere plaats kan krijgen.
I think that it will as most people can not afford the houses hat they have so something will have to happen
Hopefully so !!! They tell me i can’t manage a mortgage of £127k at £610 a month repayments yet i can rent a place at £700 per month no problems – anyone see the logic in it?
I’ll at least be able to afford something if it does crash
No.
Look at the History of the time = Mortgage Interest rates reached 16% (or higher) before the Property Market collapsed .
Right now the major factors driving the market are –
1) shortage of properties for sale
a) no one wants to waste £20,000 in Stamp Duty so they are extending & converting their existing property instead of moving to a bigger one
b) Buy to Let focus on smaller properties which are eaisiest to find tenents and give the best pay back
Both above means there are very few smaller properties for sale (and hence higher prices)
2) Low Interst rates – when rates were 16% you could borrow (and afford to pay) 3x Salary – with rates at 5-6% in theory you should be able to borrow up to 9x Salary. This means some-one on ‘average’ wage or £25k CAN afford a £225,000 house …

The bank of the control of england but there should be period where prices remain static.
I think a soft landing is most likely neither the Bank of England the government or the mortgage lenders want a crash. In the U.K. & probably the U.S. interest rates are at or close to a peak. Possibly the biggest danger is if lots of buy to let people have to sell. If you look at all the factors involved like scarcity of land and insufficient new houses to meet demand then a long term crash or setback seems unlikely.
