Parking & Other Issues

nervousftb_3

getmore4less: i think it would be pretty unfair to trick an ftb into buying the property without giving them the full story regarding parking, and i don't think this is very good advice to be handing out! as an ftb myself, i would see straight through this and the fact they had tried to con me would put me off the property completely!

Furniture: Say it is available to purchase (fairly cheaply). Don't include it, as that would put people off who don't want it.

Parking: Why not actually install parking yourself?

3 bed property = family usually. So, think of mum with 2 small children in tow. She's going to want to park outside, really. So, is this a property that would suit young people, possibly sharers?

In fact 3 bed at 100k-ish might appeal to a BTL'er. Are you right next to the station or in the middle of a big city, in which case parking might not matter?

Thanks for your comments, again all valuable input.

I'm not going down the route of doing it myself as it's now ready to sell, and obviously these things take (a) time, and (b) money I don't have to spend right now.

I'm five minutes walk from a station which gets you to Manchester City Centre in less than ten minutes flat, and will have the Metrolink running less than 100 yards away in the next couple of years!:T
