    That London estate agent lingo:
    A compact bijou - pokey hole
    Does require a little tlc - it should be demolished
    Near transport links - the train runs past your window or the motorway runs through the house
    Centrally located - it’s a mile away and in zone 6
    It’s deceptively spacious - it has nothing in it
    A lively area - a crime ridden infested dump that makes the worst bit of Moss Side look like Knutsford
    We’ve had back to back viewings all week - not so much as a nibble in a year
    That’s the 2nd bedroom - it’s a cupboard
    Interesting views - faces an ugly tower block
    Stay lucky, mate!

    It's the land that makes these properties so valuable. Someone or entity that pays 500K will want to tear everything down and rebuild. Then resell it for 5 times what they originally paid. So much for the young couple just starting out and wanting to start a family. 🤷

    • @JoyNova
      @JoyNova Месяц назад +11

      Was thinking the same. I had a feeling no regular buyer would go for a property in that condition, you’d need a ton of cash to fix it up. Most likely, someone with deep pockets will buy it, tear it down, and build something new. That's why they leave it in that state, some rich person will look past that and just see land.

    • @ToxCcc
      @ToxCcc Месяц назад +2

      Doesn’t look like much land given the caravan on the side is not part of the houses land. Planning permission would not like the house torn down and started again and they would want the house looking exactly the same with the same brickwork as next door. So it probably makes more sense just going back to brick.

    *That was great !* .. Imagine being one of the neighbours of that grow house ... oh dear. Every estate agent will have a list of local developers who have asked to be given first look at any do'er-up'er houses in the area. And they all passed. Good luck to whoever bought one of those houses you showed us. And regarding the comparison to other cheaper cities, I worked with an expat in Dublin who came from the UK. In the Celtic Tiger boom times he last 18 months and left, telling me "I'm an executive, and I make a good expat salary. But I can't meet my lifestyle expectations in Dublin as the house prices are just ridiculously high". 3 years later, the housing bubble burst and Dublin house prices fell by 58* over 4 years. They are only now, 20 years later, _just_ matching the peak reached in February 2005 ...

    London is absolutely fking dystopian. The question for me is not so much how anyone affords to live there but why they would even want to. The only positive i can see, as a disabled non-driver, is that the public transport is pretty good, unlike in the rest of the UK where it's been deliberately run into the ground in order to force people to drive everywhere. All the same, if i had £1.4m burning a hole in my pocket i'd be spending it on something grand or quirky on the east coast, not a mouldy mid-terrace with a spectacular view of parked cars and wheelie bins.

    I am shocked people actually buy these houses, they must be insane. I was brouget up in Mill Hill East which borders Fiinchley I can remember the first house, that used to be a pretty street. Now I live in Scotland in a Georgian property that was once a farm. We have loads of space, we don't have neighbours pure joy.

    The "Guide Price" for a property at auction doesn’t carry much/any significance. Often, the guide price is set below the reserve price, meaning it’s impossible for the properties to sell at or even a bit above this figure. The guide price is primarily there to generate interest by attracting people with a low starting point.

      Property in auctions ie guide prices are always valued lower at 20-30% less than local market value. And if it doesn't meet its reserve, there's the option of doing a deal with the owner afterwards.

    I rent in London. Hampstead Heath/Angel way - £2750 a month for a pretty basic 3 story 2 bed house that's had a pretty average and pretty cheap renovation. I couldn't afford to split the rent so we had to get a 3rd housemate. I pay 850 - initially moved to London for creative pursuits in 2010 but I'll be priced out soon.

      I lived for ten years in a warehouse conversion that we built ourselves - lived mainly in Seven Sisters, Manor House and Hackney and rent was around 500-600.

    I kept my horses at a yard in Surrey where one of Surrey’s biggest drug raids took place in the house on the land , we had to use this house’s driveway every day and we never ever knew what was happening in side , apparently the doors were rigged to explode If anyone tried opening them 🤣🤣, when the raid was over there was around 1,000 plastic gardening tubs left behind and I asked the police if I could take some so I took a car full and sold them 🤣🤣
