well, going by houseprices.co.uk there have been no terraced houses sold in the road since 2004, but not sure if they would class ours as a semi as its an end terraced and all the houses in the road are in blocks of 4, 2 end terraced and 2 mid terraced?? Anyway, the last terraced one sold for £89k in 2004.
The semi's were:
May 08 £125K
Aug 08 £128k
Dec 06 £126k
Nov 05 £100k
Nov 04 £118k
Oct 04 £109kMay: Camping set for 4, 2 books.0 -
Prices generally are back to 2004 levels, but it depends which part of the country you are in. Also, you'd expect variations of say £10k between similar houses of this type if one is done up and another one pretty dowdy. What does your survey say about valuation?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0
