Housing

 I want to revisit a housing article I wrote in 2019 and would like to add to it.

I was aware of the housebuilders benefiting from illegal immigrants then. However I am even more aware of it now and not currently investing in any housing shares.

Simple fact is- less illegal immigrants less houses needed more countryside.

Everyone would like their bank balance to sky-rocket, and buying shares can be a sure-fire way to do so. Now let’s take a look at two FTSE 100 shares that are interesting prospects to grow your wealth.

In the news, housebuilder Persimmon (LSE: PSN) seems to me to be one of the most interesting prospects in the major UK index. The fundamental metrics seem to indicate a cracking deal with a bargain basement price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of just 6.67. The dividend yield is huge too, coming in at 12.55%, and has been held steady at 125p for the last two years.

It’s pretty rare to find a company that has consistently seen its profits grow over the past five years, but Persimmon has done just that. There has been a steady climb from £372 million in 2014 to £886.4 million in 2018.

Brexit and customer complaints

The spectre of Brexit seems to have haunted all housing shares, with practically every company mentioning the ‘B’ word in their trading statements. And share investors will remember just how hard housebuilders fell following the Leave vote in 2016. However, I believe we are on the final stage of the Brexit journey, and think there is a good chance Britain will leave by 31st October 2019. Either way, with immigration constantly rising year on year, and more single-person households, there remains a structural demand for more housing.

Now on to the issue of customer complaints, and this seems to be more worrying. There seem to be hundreds of homeowners complaining about ‘snagging issues’ in their homes, such as cracked window frames. This has generated plenty of negative publicity and newspaper articles.

In contrast to this, I have seen some positive reviews and actually have visited some newly built Persimmon homes a few miles from where I live. Upon a quick inspection (with pictures), they do seem to be in reasonable condition.

So despite these two fears, one of which I would describe as negative sentiment, I would rate Persimmon a buy around its current level of 1,877p for the great yield.

Barratt Developments (LSE: BDEV) is Britain’s biggest housebuilder. Again the fundamentals look attractive here, with a cheap P/E of 8.59. The dividend yield is good at 4.6%, yet this doesn’t tell the whole story. For both 2017 and 2018 the company paid a special dividend of 17.3p, and if this is maintained then the potential yield is well over 5.5%. The dividend cover is very good at 2.51, so the company has plenty of scope to continue paying this special dividend as it sees fit.

The trading statement released on 10th July 2019 gives further cause for optimism. Operating margins are now at 18.9% and profit before tax is expected to beat market expectations at around £910 million.

Overall, I would rate Barratt Developments as a strong hold at its current price of 575p at the time of writing. There is perhaps a slight concern over the selling prices of its London properties, yet there could well be an opportunity for canny investors to buy in the future.

Family Politics

 I just called my mum and mentioned that my doctor sister didn't care much about rape gangs because she hadn't been raped. My mum didn't like it but it's still being read worldwide. We must take our country back.

So........

Got this one my mind now........ yeah maybe I should wait til we get 400,000 on this site but we've got OVER 5 MILLION WORLDWIDE now so you deserve ANOTHER ONE...........

So surreal being at this level........ like very few people could understand it..........

Like very few..........

Would some people @htafc care if I jumped off the Town Stadium roof and killed myself like Robert Sutcliffe? Some wouldn't care, some would even be glad........

So surreal.........

I've seen so much good stuff and so much shit it all kinda fades into one now..........

Only my true fans and readers know my real writing goals..........

But I'll say this.........

You think when you reach the OVER 5 MILLION level you give a fuck even if a multi millionaire tells you to stop 'clogging up' with your writing.............

LOLS I just think it's hilariious........

I don't take shit from anyone now.

More views........

One key point I have to say for myself though........ as I actually do care about my younger readers and writers..... and it's something I need to work on myself........

So when I was younger say when I was getting 5p an hour writing........

I'd be like.......... oh don't put it online....... what would people think........

Like say over 10 years ago there will be some writing with me not using my real name.........

But now it's like...

@MagnusCarlsen having a quick laugh with me about how I LIKE MY OWN POSTS............?

Just fucking surreal man........ just great free publicity..........

The other KEY point though...........

So even now I sometimes think about women I've known in the past, you know like Karlina Shaw........

I don't actually think about the cooler ones like Cameo Carnekie that much........ she did want a pic though.........

Smile please!

Well I ain't got the best teeth baby, I was thinking. This ain't the dentist life.

Only GMs like Davies get me smiling with my teeth on cam atm...... what a player, youngest IM in the world... keeps going on and on............

But you just see as you get older and MORE FAMOUS there are hot women like Karlina EVERYWHERE...........

I spoke to TWO yday who were prob hotter than her...........

Listen young writers- if you are true... and you probably are true reading this...... you must always write for yourself first........

If people are too DUMB to understand your content that's their loss.........

Look at all the men....... all the people who killed themsevles because they were THINKING about shit too much....... why do you think I put up the AVICCI vid today?

Don't take SHIT from anyone- get out of the leftist mind bubble. 

Mark Howitt thanks his true readers. More to come.

Some artists are only seen as GRANDMASTERS after they die... yet I personally believe the title should live forever.

The word "grandmaster" originated from a combination of the French word "grand" (meaning "great" or "chief") and the English word "master"...

 Not Only The Views

Blasting this out after my walk... need to keep doing these... nice British weather now...

So...

Some people might measure a writer by views. People who wants stats involved...

For the
@MarkHowitt
fans out there I'm on around five million worldwide now.

@Financial_Orbit
will be on around 500 million...

But who is the BETTER WRITER...

Had quick chat with my dad about this yesterday... I basically said... he might be more well known than me for writing about SHARES... yet I'm still the better writer overall...

Because it really isn't just about the VIEWS or the MONEY you get while you're alive on how you should be judged as a writer. It's your actual ABILITY TO WRITE. Being able to SAY SOMETHING MEANINGFUL. BEING ABLE TO HAVE AN IMPACT WORLDWIDE.

Let's look at two writers who are at the SUPER GM LEVEL...

Nietzsche... German philosopher. SOLD VERY FEW BOOKS WHILE ALIVE. Gay and ended up truly mad. STILL ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST IMPACTFUL WRITERS of the 19th century. I think he got God wrong though... but I've only seen that in recent years...

George Orwell... reading this you might have heard of him right? But a lot of people in their twenties in the UK haven't now...

GEORGE ORWELL WASN'T EVEN HIS BIRTH NAME.

His birth name was Eric Blair, born in India. Changed his name to sound more British. He wanted to be a writer from a YOUNG AGE. Yet he had basically no success in his twenties. Got shot in the Spanish Civil War.

His best work 1984... prophetic... he had to go to a REMOTE SCOTTISH ISLAND to write that... died about a year later...

He really MASTERED THE STYLE AND BEING ABLE TO SEE THE FUTURE by that point..

Big smoker, probably drank too. Obviously getting SHOT isn't very healthy. Dead at about 47... way more famous after death...

These days someone like Rio Ferdinand can write 'never a pen' and get hundreds of thousands of views...

As a writer you have to your OWN style or maybe even SEVERAL DIFFERENT STYLES like
@chuckpalahniuk
...

Yet you must still write something meaningful. And ideally have an impact on the world.

Unite The Right

 Unite The Right

In the United Kingdom, there are many parties that can be described as right wing. I know that's a simple term for it...

The main ones are @reformparty_uk , Conservatives and UKIP...

Combined these parties have MASSIVE support. Sure there are some differences between them yet all want to stop illegal immigration.

After a LOT of reading and thought I paid to join @reformparty_uk . I believe this is the party to make Britain Great Again.

I also believe we need the votes of ALL British Patriots to win and make a real change for Britain. So please let's all support @reformparty_uk !

Why I Joined Reform UK

 Why I Joined Reform UK

Always been interested in politics. Spent quite a lot of time on it, following the news. Never joined a party- very few of them would be worth my time.

However I have voted for right wing parties all my life. I believe that people should have control of their own lives to a large extent, and Britain should have control of its own borders.

I have been urged by many people to join a party, or run for an election. Inside the houses of Yorkshire working for British Gas many customers agreed with my opinions. "Why don't you run for council lad?"

I could only join a party which shares my values and wants to make Britain Great Again. We are the nation that governed one third of the world's population. We have brought freedom and democracy to many parts of the world. British people have achieved so much and we must continue to do so.

I have now joined Reform UK and will do my best to help. Thank you for reading.

Knowing Yourself

 Coming back to the only @MarkHowitt can ever know Mark Howitt...

Been rereading a bit of @BernardCornwell lately...

Def SUPER GM btw....... I COULD write a BIT like him but most people have NO IDEA how much historical knowledge he has..........

Only GM writers can truly know themselves... and depict others in what they write...

And you might be tuned into one of the Greatest British writers of the 21st century...

@ajbell vs @AskNationwide which has better Customer Service?

 @ajbell

vs

@AskNationwide

which has better Customer Service?

So... time to blast this one out...

I've been with

@AskNationwide

for over 20 years as a customer...

@ajbell

... well it's been years but recently started putting more money into them...

By instinct I would say

@ajbell

does have better customer service in terms of how quickly they answer the phone. Sure they might be playing HARD TO GET about making me an offer to write about them but everytime I've called up the customer service has been good.

The interesting thing about

@AskNationwide

is you actually can ring a branch which I didn't know until fairly recently. It would be better if they could confirm my GrandMaster title in writing over the phone yet at least the assistant did write it down on paper!
