The horrific thing is that that is cheap for Bromley.

hmmm please will someone check my maths or my understanding of yield?

the asking price is £65,000
the particulars say: "sold with the benefit of a long term tenant and with a rental income of £4,080 per annum generating a yield of approximately 5.4%."

4080/65,000 = 6.2% yield or have they included costs we are not being told about to give a net yield?

Do I detect some damp?

My guess is it's been bought by someone to use as a crash pad during the week. Back to the country pile at the weekend.

Definitely. Mrs Shadow works in London in the week. It would be ideal. More than I'd care to pay though.

Looks like water ingress from the roof, and at least they haven't tried to cover it up.

I'm a little disappointed there are no pictures of the air raid shelter, and in particular, the apocryphal warnings from the Old Testament.

Hmm, maybe those would put a bit of a downer on the ad, though!

That's bigger than one we had on here a while back which had a mezzanine (shelf only just big enough for a mattress) and a shower in the corner by the front door. Toilet was shared.

How about renting this one, not sure where the 'private shower' is, in the wardrobe?

Such a shame they don't realise how much they are putting off buyers by not decluttering. They mention the well stocked garden in the particulars, but not the well stocked house.

I'd love a little porch bit like that in my garden though.

It's wierd, it's almost like a shop display of items for sale for your home, rather than being a home!

Not many detached houses manage to be so pokey as this!
