Bit more than the £49k per house paid to the builders in yesterday's blog

Manchester Evening News: Houses at a knock-down price

Salford Council buying semis at well over £50k above market value to then demolish them! "Opposition groups slammed it as a waste of money." You can say that again! Have a look at the comments at the bottom too - always good for a smile!

Not sure what the fuss is about. It's a 'ransom strip' - you would have to pay over the odds to persuade the owners to sell.

BTW looks just like the first house I ever bought (on Heaton Rd in Withington).
