So long as houses remain affordable people will buy. Yes affordability is stretched but most people don't buy a house purely on the basis of an investment - we all have to live somewhere after all. All this talk of house prices falling, some say 5%, some say 10% some say no fall at all. Didn't they predict a huge fall with Covid, see what happened there...
Most of us hold a house for quite a long time so generally have to be unlucky to lose out. Alternative is rent which is ok short term but long term that's a lot of dead money. Need to think of the long game.
