Property comparison

I am due to exchange and complete on this property on Monday: http://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/details/32053056?search_identifier=4eb1eb3c5f37f1bc5c37d96c491365b3. This property has come up for sale today on my road for slightly less money than I am paying (around the same): http://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/details/33901334?search_identifier=4eb1eb3c5f37f1bc5c37d96c491365b3. I am interested to hear peoples' thoughts on the two properties and whether you think they are worth the same. One is terraced and one is a semi. One is more spacious than the other.

I prefer the semi but that's just a personal thing. Which is worth more to you?

Looks like you are overpaying.

i have spoken to an estate agent friend who believes the semi is worth more than the terraced even though the terraced is bigger. I am confused though.

I'd go with the semi, move in and relax. It has been a bit of a soap opera - do you really want to pull out of a sale and start again?

In not so long the sums of money involved will look like pocket change.

I'd rather live in the semi. It looks like the townhouse has a garden that is about 3 feet deep (the fact there is no clear picture of the garden indicates it isn't much of a selling point...)

Thanks for the answers. It looks like the semi is preferred.

Semi looks better .....you could always hold the chain to ransom ...seems the norm in England lol

Terraced are worth less, 3 story are worth less. If anything it is overpriced compared to the semi.

what do you mean by hold the chain to ransom?

You're only talking a few thousand pounds difference -not a lot. I think the semi is worth more and a much nicer property even if the other is larger.
