I can understand Dervprof position. A link when it sells should be fine.
I asked Clapton where his friend was trying to buy in Yorkshire and he wouldn`t tell us. He stated prices were going up or something like that but he wouldn`t back it up. Works both ways0 -
I doubt many people here would post details of a friend's property without their consent. I doubt many "friends" would allow their details to be published, especially if they read posts like yours. Maybe you are having problems with your mortgage and are in negative equity. Your reaction to my posts would be understandable given your circumstances. Any slightly negative news about the property market must be a bit worrying for those who may be struggling financially.
FWIW, I'll keep you updated on the progress, or lack of, in the sale of her property. If it sells next week for asking, I'll let you know. I suspect that you think that as I am of a bearish persuasion, that I simply want to post negative news about property prices. Well, I doubt that you'll be getting much "bad news" from me about this sale, as she has told me that unless she gets a reasonable offer, she is staying put. She wants a similarly priced property but in a different part of the country, but doesn't need to move at this time. If she makes the sale, and the right property becomes available, she'll be moving.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older. Equity : Don't know, don't care much. Savings : That's asking for ridicule.0 -
I've posted links to many properties as part of a meaningful discussion.
If your not going to post the link, as you can see, the likelyhood is that there cannot be a meaningful discussion on the subject.
Seems to me the lesson to learn here for everyone is that if your not willing / able to back up the facts then is there really a point in posting the anecdote:wall:
What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.
