PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

A sympathetic tone is not necessary. Perhaps less of the judgmentalism. Not everyone lives to the same standards or wishes to live in a show home. Nor does everyone know to tidy the house to make it more attractive to prospective buyers.Woolsery said:Tahlullah.H said:

You're bang-on there; I do judge people. I judge them to be capable of much more than you appear to think possible.Tahlullah.H said:

Tenants have no incentive to tidy up. Quite the reverse, really.Phantom151 said:Tahlullah.H said:
