A real house selling exercise.

DiggerUK

Digger Mansions 1 is going on the market as soon as it is cleaned and decorated.
As there are 12 identical properties in the same row. What %ge of pre Northern Rock prices do you think it will hit the market at?

We wish.
Reckon we will have a valuation in 2/3 weeks time, when re-dec complete.
Hamish will have to face up to a real live "Digger got a real time property to sell'
Hope Hamish likes humble pie.

ok. so the question is "i'm only going to tell you vaguely where i live, and not provide you with anything like enough information to make an informed guess, can you guess how much i am going to put my house on the market for compared to what someone else sold a very similar house for in 2007? when i reveal the answer it won't be particularly interesting because you won't actually know where i live so there's really no point playing this game".

i like it.

+10%

well also depends when he bought it. If it was 1968 I would like to change my vote.....

if it was any time after 2003, and given the lender, then my vote stands.

It's irrelevant whether Digger Mansions is in Bromley, Camberwell, Croydon, Forest Hill, Peckham or Woolwich. (alphabetical order)
The percentages are the same.
For us here at Digger Mansions, there is the property market before Northern Rock hit the rocks, and the property market after Northern Rock hit the rocks.

Hamish will have a real time exercise to deal with. Why should I lie about it's progress?
