Two doors down has just gone on for £415k... 4bed 70s detached... no house in the whole place (and there are many that are much nicer) has sold for more than £350k.

AgeingBabyBoomer Report post Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) ^^ Just noticed your sig Rigsby II, It would seem the most dangerous thing for a political dissident to do in the UK is go for a stroll in the country.

Guest Bart of Darkness Report post Posted August 7, 2005 I love to live there - you wouldn't its Barnsley There are some nice parts of Barnsley, but would you pay £394,950 to live in Hoyland? http://www.vebra.com/home/search/vdetails....756&pid=9594743 A mate of mine lives very close to here (council estate, he's not that rich) and he pointed it out to me last time I visited him.

Fancypants Report post Posted August 7, 2005 Spot the differences!!http://www.housepricecrash.co.uk/FAQ-1989-...papers-said.php <{POST_SNAPBACK}> this one will make the 89 one look like a tea party. Those articles re-confirm that the boom wasn't strong enough to thoroughly percolate right through the regions all the way to Lerwick, Stornoway, Derry, Pembroke, Penzance and Holyhead. This boom was strong enough to reach the outer limits. So the bust will have an equally widespread impact Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
