as someone who worked in the building trade for many years i can tell you the first thing to go in a recession is house buying, the owners of our market site want to sell it to a developer and build 170 houses on it but which developer is going to want it in a downturn? besides its next to a slaughter house(which they dont own) and who in their right mind wants to live next door to that?
