Moving house...

Why does nobody want to sell a house that i might be remotely interested in buying??

rightmove yourmove anyotherbloodymove, all of them have houses than i can't buy or won't buy.

I save a page of one i like, ask people who know the area better than i do and what happens..
'oooh no, you don't want to live there'
'rougher'
'beruit'

All the others are total shoite, all i want is a semi / decent end terraced in a decent area with a decent sized garden and off road parking, for under 100k, is it too much to ask? yes it bloody well obviously is..

    Its like when you are trying to buy a car. The one you want is like 'hens teeth - can't get them for love nor money'. The one you are trading in 'has no resale value on the market - the market is flooded with second hand ones'
