Buying to let

Has anyone had any dealings with a so called propery company called Capital Growth Uk Ltd? I am having a very nasty experience with them over the refund of a deposit and I would like to hear from anyone else who has dealt with them or to warn anyone who is thinking about getting involved with them.

    Other Peoples Money?
    The concept of using Other People's Money is one of the most powerful and is used by some of the smartest entrepreneurs in business....

    Quite so, my guess is they used the OP's money to b#gger off to Rio.

    Good luck OP, but my guess is you're a little too late.
    "Mrs. Pench, you've won the car contest, would you like a triumph spitfire or 3000 in cash?" He smiled.
    Mrs. Pench took the money. "What will you do with it all? Not that it's any of my business," he giggled.

    Never heard of them and not particularly interested in finding out, so I will give my stock answer to this type of question :

    companies like these are generally run by lying thieves and are best avoided.


    Unfortunately, you didn't ask earlier and have found this out the hard way.

    #1. The people that run these "sell your house and rent back" companies are generally lying thieves and are best avoided

    #2. This time next year house prices in general will be lower than they are now

    #3. Cheap houses are a good thing not a bad thing
