A true story..........

Sibley

Yes I did get black balled from HPC. That's true.

Thing was, I was never abusive to anyone. I stuck to my guns and said there would not be a house price crash. I had experts quoting figures,graphs,CNN reports and more.

I listened to morons quoting how much they would pay for Mr So and So's house. Congratulating each other saying 'It's here' How they would gazaunder every seller in UK etc etc etc.

I viewed it as nasty behaviour. Wishing bad on other people. I could never see how it would be allowed to happen......


And it wasn't. :rotfl:


Thank you Gordon. :T

Message boards are boring when everybody agrees with each other anyway.

He never said it was round his way. North London is hardly up the road from him.

With that username - you must be one of Bendix's mates? Do you compare notes on kathoeys?;)

295K for a house OR 2 flats is phenomenally cheap in Ealing - v few houses sell for as little as that, certainly not one big enough to make 2 flats (even if they're both studios!).

I think the OP's mate's been done.

If I could have bought a nice house in Ealing for 295K a decade ago - and one couldn't then! - I'd still be living there...

I was going to say the same thing. A house - even converted into two flats - in one of the nicer suburbs in west London, an area full of professionals, young families, parks etc for under £300k is a steal.

To suggest he has done well, is a joke. No wonder he had lots of interest and got asking price. The buyer is laughing all the way to the bank.

Why is it that EVERYONE who hears the word Bangkok always talks about kathoeys, and yet those who live or have lived there don't give them a second thought.

With all due respect, Jonbvn, this post says more about your interests than it does anyone else.

All I meant was that this place is horrendously expensive and sold easy. Surely if we were in HPC mode it wouldn't have sold or he would have been offered 10k from one of you lot.

Utter nonsense. It's ridiculously cheap for the location.

I lived in Ealing in the early 1990s and I remember looking in estate agent windows then and seeing houses for £300k, and they weren't particularly flash then.
