in House buying, renting & selling
3 bed semi up for sale. Seems quite pricey but if there are good schools in the area then I can always sell for what I paid. I mean even if house prices fall a bit, they won't fall by that much.

Thanks to dionaeamuscipula on fool.co.uk for pointing it out.

    Well you've missed the boat on that one. At such a keen price I've just offered full asking for cash.

    The carpet was the final decider for me.

    Thanks for the tip off.

    Seriously though, I'd be interested to hear opinions on Llanedryn.

    I've looked at Radyr, Llandaff, Lisvane.

    They're all a bit "family". And I am not a family.

    And that Llanedeyrn keeps coming up. But looking at the map I don't think it's in an area that would turn out to be too desirable. Or maybe I am just biased against anything that's Newport-side of things (Knifing centre of UK I heard).

    And it's not got a station.

    And everything on RM looks like it's on a council estate.

    I don't know if you'd be wanting to wait until tomorrow on this one, I think that you'd need to go in now and go in hard. It's less than 160 miles between this place and the Olympic Village and that's got to bring the value up even further.

    I'm not sure that the local school is really all that good though.

    Easiest way to find out good and bad areas is to see whether the postcode qualifies for reduced stamp duty. If it does, don't buy there!

    Hint (for some): this house should be listed at about £160k. they probably mis-typed £164,480 imho.

    We KNOW it's not worth £3.6million

    If you click on the brochure it seems actually to be on the mkt for £120k.
