Is it worthwhile paying the extra £900 to receive a large document which is mainly standard blurb, plus 1. Roof timbers not inspected as it is not safe to enter the loft. 2. Weather dry. 3. Unable to inspect floor boards and joists due to carpets. 4. Wiring should be checked by an electrician. 5. Heating should be checked by a qualified heating engineer Etc.

University Bubble Making Hissing Sounds

I don't understand why he would think 61k would be the largest debt in the country. 3 years at 9250 + 13022 =66,816 plus interest. Assuming it is only a 3 year degree course. -
Like Keir Starmer you refer to "rule breaking". The accusations appear to be about law breaking. However none of us know what is being investigated. Once again the police are in the difficult position of investigating elected officials. Neither Lab/Con are behaving well in this situation and yet they both depend on this fatuous nonsense, as it reflects attention from the real issues. It seems the world economies are in real trouble. We need serious people to come up with sensible and innovative solutions. Our supposed leaders are unable to recognise these problems even exist let alone resolve the issues. They all think the solution is to borrow more. The Truss/Kwarteng budget showed the world this would not be possible. Yet both parties are happy to blame higher interest rates around the world on that budget, so they can pretend all is well. Back to Angell Rayner. You have to admire her achievement in difficult circumstances. However much like Prescott, It seems she is deputy leader to be the working class face of Labour whilst the wealthy and powerfull get on with their own quest for glory.

One of the tables shows there are1465 shared ownership caravans and mobile homes. How does that work?

It will be interesting to see if she can magically find the invoices for £15,000.

Sunak Is Going To Be Useless

...... the prime minister said: “There won’t be a general election on that day" That makes it highly likely it will be a 2nd May election. -
London New build luxury flats not selling

If the property price does not rise by 19.8% as stated in the details, would this count as mis-selling? It could be a risk free investment backed by the estate agent. -

I have always thought of they can't tax it they won't allow it. Bitcoin is very difficult to track. -
Sunak Addressing The Nation At 5.40pm
lie to bet replied to Social Justice League's topic in House prices and the economy
To be fair to our MPs they have been very clear about Parliaments position on Israel. They set up a clear vote on: 1. Humanitarian cease fire (Labour) or 2. Immediate cease fire (SNP) or 3. Immediate humanitarian cease fire (conservative) They then demonstrated they were unable to debate this important matter let alone be held to account by voting on it. How much does Parliament cost per day to run? -
Found some land registry paperwork for my house today. It sold as a new property in 1959 at £856. I started to wonder what that is in todays money. https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/inflation-calculator It turns out the pound has devalued by over 97% since then. (almost unbelievable) So I entered this into the BOE calculator. My house would now cost £16,482.30 I cant help but wonder how much easier life would be if I could have paid £16.5k for my house. What has happened to us?

Rightmove director of property science Tim Bannister said: “Sellers who are serious about moving this year would be well-advised to ride this wave of increased buyer confidence with an attractive asking price before any pre-election jitters or unexpected events dampen the momentum.” Does anybody know what property science is? "He holds an MBA from the Wharton School, The University of Pennsylvania, USA." Unusual for a scientist to have an MBA.

My property is not selling thread
lie to bet replied to The Angry Capitalist's topic in House prices and the economy
A mate of mine has accepted an offer on his house after a couple of price reductions. A valuer for a mortgage company inspected the house and valued at 100k less than agreed price. His family all agreed the surveyor doesn't know what he is doing and that they should not give the 'house away'. Interestingly, the purchaser who is a financial adviser has agreed to split the difference and overpay by 50K. I don't think the house they are planning to purchase has been valued yet. Trying to say nothing whilst this plays out.
