I have no debt, Mr Wilson has loads, and he can`t sell his slum properties to pay off his masters (bankers) I am very jealous (not) :rotfl:

And now back to reality:

In July, Fergus and Judith Wilson, said they were ready to step away from the buy-to-let business and sell their Kent empire to the highest bidder.

And now, according to Emma Dunkley at the Financial Times, they could receive at least £250 million after interest from a handful of eager Chinese investors over the weekend.

'It will get to crunch point where we agree a price and it has to be quick, because property prices are going up all the time. We're likely to go with someone who does not have to raise the money.'

Why not wait then Fergus, make more money for all your "hard work"? :T


"If someone offers me £220million, I'll say no. I'm not desperate to sell – this is not a distressed sale. "


Right you are then. :rotfl:


"The minimum Fergus is willing to accept for the portfolio is £250million, which he says is based on current values calculated using property website Rightmove, while he intends for it to be paid in one sum."


The minimum Fergus needs to pay off his bankers is "Lots", and he is crossing his fingers and toes at this very moment while praying for a miracle.

Wonder if Fergus will have a deal by Monday?

What ever happened to brit1234?

There was a time when he would match Crashy's shibolleths admirably.

Just wait till the crash really gets rolling, I will be the only one posting :rotfl:

BTW, has Fergus sold yet?

The last I heard from him he was up in court for threatening behavior against EoN customer care agents:

So my guess would be if he is squabbling and losing his cool over electric bills, he might be feeling the pressure somewhat.

Or it could just be a sign that he is a bit of a tool.
