An old friend has turned up at auction.... http://www.propwld.co.uk/auction/pdfs/agen...on/Lot%2020.pdf Went for 500K in 2003 http://www.houseprices.co.uk/e.php?q=FLAT+...+85+CANUTE+ROAD No guide price - because the auctioneers know this site loves the development? btp

Like the way 2 sinks have been put in without regard for the fact you can't fit the washing machine underneath... doh btp

Look through the previous threads for info on making a claim through the courts. Check the process people have been through. Do you have the inventory report? Good luck btp

Depends how many you squeeze into the space I suppose. Must be a c*** if you've bought next door though. btp -

Holy C**p Things Really Have Changed
backtoparents replied to Gel's topic in House prices and the economy
Wouldn't it be ironic if this was the case. They have a 240 million BTL empire, so I'm sure they'll be fine. Still, they must have spent a few hours with the tax advisor last week. btp -
Spain: Prices Down In 3rd Quarter 2007
backtoparents replied to hypna's topic in Overseas property investment
To be fair to Adi, he does strike me as a chap of some good taste, and I'm sure wherever he is looking to buy will afford him many years of enjoyment. *hugs* btp PS. Thanks for the article winkie - seems to tally with what us city dwellers are seeing on the ground. -

Woolwich Give Money Away
backtoparents replied to IP Newcomer's topic in House prices and the economy
This seems to run rather at odds with what I thought was the ability of landlord to magically just increase the rents. btp -
Spanish Resale Property Prices Down 20%
backtoparents replied to margesimpson's topic in House prices and the economy
This is city centre stuff (Barcelona), in a reasonable neighbourhood, so I guess that developers would rather abandon sites out of the centre rather than these. Have to admit some sites out on the outskirts of Hospitalet seem to have been stuck at "shell" stage for some time. Then again, this might be due to a shift towards commercial property development nearby. Did you see the "Callejeros" on Cuatro a few months back? Seemed to have pretty sad examples of off-plan gone wrong. btp -

Spanish Resale Property Prices Down 20%
backtoparents replied to margesimpson's topic in House prices and the economy
Well, reality has bitten at a local estate agents. Lots of property in the windows with "reduced" and the amount the asking prices have dropped by. Some 10K, some 30K - this is city centre stuff. Some 2K - no comment. And they are still building. Well, the sites are being cleared and adverts put up. Most ambitious is a 3 storey development with a swimming pool on top - wouldn't fancy buying/renting below that. As expected, the stretched are beginning to flog their parking spaces first. Signs go up, and are ripped down by the local competition, also trying to sell their own. Know of a coupl -

Look At This! Fox & Sons "sale" Window
backtoparents replied to dokken's topic in House prices and the economy
Imagine coming home in the evening to your flat, sorry, executive apartment, knowing that if you'd had the wit you could have instead bought something far better but a ferry ride away. Gutting. btp P.S. Wikipedia tells me Dieppe is twinned with Grimsby. -

Advice Wanted On Dealing With Letting Agents
backtoparents replied to The Masked Tulip's topic in All about renting
Sir, Why are you going through a letting agent? I've always had more luck looking for places to rent in the local free-ads, work bulletin boards, asking around local shops/pubs, etc. From the tenant's point of view, letting agents add absolutely f***-all value to the whole process. Another link to break in the chain. btp -
