Come back OP! WE NEED TO KNOW!!!! LOL"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0

Well, you raise an interesting point. Would a car parked outside a house that you like really be such a deal breaker???0

It would depend what it looked like. Something like this might."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0

This is what happens all the time on these forums, does the OP intend to look at the replies at all, or maybe they are and laughing up their sleeves at all the squabbling they started!0

Annoyingly true. But I always think that someone else might also find the information useful.0 -
Perhaps there is no driveway parking at the house, so on the road is the only place a car owner would be able to park their own car.
If this is the case, maybe the OP should apply to the Council for a dropped kerb (there will be a charge) and widen any access onto the front garden (assuming there is one) then create off road parking on their own land.
If this "abandoned" vehicle really is causing all potential sales to fall through, it would be worth spending a couple of grand to get this sorted - in fact a house with off road parking would command a higher price than one without, so the cost could be passed on to the purchaser by revising the asking price.I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe

Squabbling? That was reasoned debate!"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0
