peterduckett Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 My partner and i have seen a house on the market priced at £135,000 and has been on the market for over 300 days. The house looks like nothing has ever been done and has air heating and a miss mash of double glazing and non double glazing with some of the double glazed units blown or old aliminum type. The house looks structally sound but may also need re-wiring. Now my Reasearch How much to offer Around the corner thier is a comparble house in size but with UPVC double glazing and GCH and the finish is remarkable priced at £130,000 which has not sold Going to the next village just a mile away a house sold for £120,000 again with UPVC double glazing, GCH and another remarkable finish. So dose that put the actual market value of this house below £120,000 Thier has been two houses that have sold on this street in June 2008 one for £145,000 which does have double glazing and GCH and another for £131,000 which is repectivly a simular condition to this on im viewing Putting these prices though nationwides value calculator the come to £130,000 and £116,000 respectivly The closes house that i can find that has been sold recently was november 2008 two road over for £121,000 with double glazing and air heating. Now the hard part what to offer bering in mind it need work and prices around the area. Should i come in at £106,000 and aim to finish at £112,000 or is that too cheeky Any help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grey shark Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) Have you got a thing about double glazing ? If you and your partner are genuine FTB'ers for gods sake wait , in 12 months time you will get something much better for your money than the sh1thole you're currently thinking about putting a offer on ..........

If I were you and serious and I not, try £70k, unless you love it and its looks sound and it don't matter then pay with your life or 300 years at £135,000, not a pennyless. Mishmash. Anyway, I'd guess, a popular opinion may be aim for 50%ish off peak offers, 30% off peak if your desperate to move. If they don't bite your offer, offer elsewhere.
