If I were you I'd get your bank or building society, to offer you the mortgage...... then wait............ then buy a repossessed property, you will find more are coming on the market soon..... profiting on others misery I know, but if you want to get on the property ladder, its probably the only financially prudent way

Prices are set to drop a bit yet - 2.5% last month and could be 10%+ by the end of the year - and mortgages aren't easy at the moment - don't buy yet unless you have to - wait a few months until the market settles at its lowest or haggle for a bargain.

Yes but DON'T pay the seller what they want for the house. It is a REAL buyers market at the minute. Haggle haggle haggle on the price.

Depends where you are in UK - undoubtedly, the house price market will go down a bit more in some areas and a lot more in others but in some parts of UK, the market is strong and prices are still rising slowly. Therefore, it's a great time to start planning for it - keep an eye on house price movements, save as much money as possible and start researching your mortgage deals. Credit conditions may get a little better with recent announcements by bank of England and RBS - if other banks follow suit.
It's all a matter of timing. However, if everybody who is thinking of buying a house sits around for 6 months, then prices will drop because there will be no market activity. When you do decide to buy, be selective and negotiate hard.

Very hard to get a good mortgage deal at the moment. Personally, I'd sit tight and wait to see what happens over the next 6 months.

Yes! It has never been worse apparently. Rent and save then think of buying when the market picks up eventually.
