I searched sold prices in Kings Langley (WD4) and I can't find anything that sold for exactly 335k in 2008. Either they gazundered or something else happened.

To be fair the house has potential, other houses in that road have been massively extended, so they could be some growth there. There are a lot of detached houses in the road, a good sign in value terms.
It would have been more honest of Kirsty to point out the downsides - like the railway line and only one bathroom. She also could have made more of the "fire sale" aspect.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Do we know that this is definitely the house? I need to go to Kings Langley this afternoon, so could do a drive past...Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

I'll go have a nose later then and report back this evening. The house had a very distinctive front door so it should be easy enough to tell.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

How about a weekly hour-long programme about real people and their real housing problems?
I'd like to see Kirsty and Phil help an ex-smackhead find their dream property on a budget of £12k.
