Oh yes, if you are thinking of having kids in the next few years, a house would be better for you. Son looked at Beckton but wasnt keen. Little terraced house near a park but a gang of hoodies by the park when he went to view
and squashed on road parking.
Hope you find a nice one, keep looking0 -

Unfortunately, there will always be compromises if you are looking for cheap houses so close to London. If you move to certain areas of West London, you could pay £6-700k for a tiny house with no parking and you will still get some undesirables hanging around.0 -
Thats right Dave - wasnt casting aspersions on Beckton, just that particularly viewing didnt go down well. If you are worrying about your car being nicked or damaged just while you are viewing a house, it doesnt bode well, does it0
