There's no space left. That's it folks. Any more building needs to be done next to your house. We're full.
.... Or you can buy my place and build block of flats. It'll cost you though. Precisely 100% more than it would have done less than 4 years ago.
That was a pretty good tip for you guys early 2012, if I do say so myself.Proudly voted remain. A global union of countries is the only way to commit global capital to the rule of law.0 -

It would have been easier to follow if I hadn't lost all my money following your previous tip to buy silver.0 -

You wouldn't have lost it all, I got out of that pretty quick after it turned.Proudly voted remain. A global union of countries is the only way to commit global capital to the rule of law.0 -
If you demolish houses where do you put people while you build the new ones and where does the vast amount of capital come from to carry out the work?
well my local council has demolished an estate and built more than twice as many flats in that space, the next estate it demolishes can be housed there and the one after that can be housed in the the next one and so on
The capital comes from half the flats that are sold to the private buyers who are paying ~5x build cost0
