    It looks to me like either
    a) a repo - did the previous owners leg it :(
    b) Bitter or unwell tenants that had to leave

    Likely, but so many people actually DO live like this *shudder* I get eggy when Mr Phirefly leaves the teatowel in the wrong place....

    agreed- I was a social worker for a few years and saw some very squalid living conditions :( Its my professional view that the chaos surrounding a person is the choas being played out in thier heads :( people generally live like this because they simply feel they cannot control thier environments.

    Ive seen a fair few people on KIm & Aggie who would definatley fall into this category :(
    :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:

    Not as bad as the first one, but I would worry about who was living in the garden, and whether they had been using the house:

    Incidentally, if you could get the price down a few thousand it would be a great buy in an established area.

    And I thought a house I viewed last month was untidy........... Seriously though, it was pretty untidy. I know that the current market is difficult (understatement!) but the least you can do is to make sure the place is reasonably tidy.

    I bet the EA puts in the decription that it has a extra bedroom....or even a granny flat.:rolleyes:
    If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have failed to plan properly


    I've only ever been wrong once! and that was when I thought I was wrong but I was right

    These are the best houses to buy. No competition from other eager buyers and you can get a great discount.

    Give me one weekend and £300 and you wouldn't recognise the place.

    I know it sounds daft, but I reckon there was more than one investor trying to get that house.
