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

ignore my post, doesn't matterI've got a mate who decided to sell his home in Ealing London.
Now this place would not be my cup of tea. It looked like a nice house but had actually been converted into 2 flats.
Anyway it went up for a massive £295,000.
To be honest it would have been around the £150,000 mark where I live.saving up another deposit as we've lost all our equity.
We're 29% of the way there...0 -
This is a true story....
Round my way properties are selling for £10 each - thats right £10. I have got a mate that has just signed the papers on a flat for £10 actually it is a house that was two flats and he bought both. So effectively £5 per flat.
Obviously I cannot tell you where it is or anything else about it, due to confidentiality issues.
So how do you all explain that?0 -

Wear it like a badge of honour :T'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers visible or invisible giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the worlds wealthiest and most prosperous people' Margaret Thatcher0 -
