Am I a bad person for seriously wanting those 2 sisters to fail and then actually laughing out loud when they only sold the one for 210 (having ignored the valuation and going for what they thought it was worth).:A

I haven't seen this episode yet, I'll watch it online sometime but one thing strikes me from the comments so far: What happened to the "First Time Developer" doing "One Project" helped out by "Expert" Beanbag, which is what all the previous series that I can remember were looking for. What has happened that the spec of the participants has changed for this series?A house isn't a home without a cat.

You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.

I believe RightMove updates about 8pm each night with the changes made throughout the day. In which case, it could just have been a coincidence that their buyer pulled out today.katrinar50 wrote: »That's weird!!!

No, they just rubbed me up the wrong way, especially the dark haired one.0 -
Those 2 yellow semis - who chose that colour paint!
They look to be in real financial trouble. No money to finish the second until the first is sold. Unless that first is sold quick, I reckon it will be repossessed.
Actually more likely they will keep up the mortgage on the first, as that should show a profit, and let the unfinished one be repossessed.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.
