Seen paper work from agents valuing 140k-145k

So it's probably worth somewhere less than £140k. I would start being more concerned that it's worth as much as £130k, rather than whether it's worth too much.

I don’t think so, a nationally recognised estate agent offered him a cheeky 139k whilst I was there. But we’ll see.

Do you actually believe that?

Ok, let me tell you the exact situation in a bit more detail and if yon think I’m being naive then I’ll look to get a proper survey done.

Identical properties in the same block of flats have sold between 155k - 165k in the past 2 years. The kitchen and bathroom are not modern and have 80’s decor so will need changing . I figured 2.5k on the kitchen and bathroom, doing the work myself,bar electrics.

I’m very intrigued why everyone thinks this is such a bad deal - I honestly don’t get it! sounds like if I put 30,40,50,60k discount you would all still come back saying it’s a bad deal!

Ok......give us a link to this bargain

There is no link. My neighbour agreed to sell it to me so hasn’t given the estate agents the go ahead to out this on the market.
