jasonpistol Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) is anyone following market trends in stratford? a few months ago this area was out of reach but in the last 6 weeks or so the number of houses on the market has nearly doubled and there have been a lot of price cuts Edited June 21, 2014 by jasonpistol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARTINX9 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) I suppose its all relative - I am young enough to remember when you could buy houses in St Ratford for £60,000. I really cannot imagine why you would pay £350k+ for a house there - when there are much nicer areas a few stops east on the central line with similar prices. Saying that the new builds are even more expensive than the houses. I am sure many love it - but I could and would never live there! And I don't really see much evidence in terms of asking prices of there being any sanity. £350k for this grim place - no thanks! http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-44735080.html Edited June 22, 2014 by MARTINX9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samtheman Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Stratford has decent public transport links but other than that, it has little going for it. I don't see much happening in the future. One of the first places that should start to see a crash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bathroom looks like it hasn't been cleaned for weeks - look at the dirt on the tiles. The garden looks like a jungle and is overlooked by some tower block. Who wouldn't want to live there?
