Developer wants cash quick - shock

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/viewdetails-11260710.rsp?pa_n=14&tr_t=buy&mam_disp=true

A number of flats all listed over the weekend in a single block.

There is little detail - no floorplan, room size, photos, anything helpful. But the text says:

Alfred Place is a massively bright, quietly located new development with period features including high ceilings and large windows in a super block.

Remaining units MUST be sold in one of central London's best potential areas.

The building has fully equipped kitchens plus many additional features , excellent security, independent heating, lift and long leases and represent genuine quality units
.

Sounds like a chap who needs his money sharpish, what do you reckon? It's that "MUST" in capitals....
...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    At nearly half a million in central London it will be interesting to see how many sell.
  • He MUST reduce his prices QUICK!

    These have ONE bedroom. I don't care where it is. I'd want more than one bedroom for £460K.
    I am a Mortgage Consultant and don't like to be told what I can and can't put in a signature so long as it's legal and truthful.

    They seem to have 7 they MUST sell in total.

    1 x one-bedroom, and 6 x two-bedrooms.

    How on earth can an estate agent be "bespoke". They sell houses. Using rightmove.



    Im sick to death of this word being used totally inappropriately http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bespoke as it seems to be used in London atm for literally anything
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. The one where you showed us Dithering Dad is a complete liar. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE Forum Team
