I know what you mean Bob, I've just bought my first home in the last few months because I could suddenly afford it. I think that if the government wants to stimulate supply, they need to put more effort into producing homes that people actually want to live in. New builds are rubbish: for the same price as my Edwardian terrace I could have got a five sixths scale model new build flat made of plasterboard and exorbitant serivce charges.
slightly ranty, but there you go.
People are still buying, it just that sellers are unwilling to drop their prices becasue they thought their house was some kind of magic money machine....
