Ballyk Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I honestly thought that ad was a joke! Has nobody told them the sky's fallen in!?! The £750k house on Osborne Park - http://www.propertypal.com/35-osborne-park-malone-road-belfast/106615 Or, to rent, £1,600 per month - http://www.propertypal.com/45-osborne-gardens-south-belfast-belfast/135620 If you were an investor, that would be a 2.5% return, before costs of maintenance, insurance, fees, etc. Not the same property, but not far off. If anyone is considering paying these prices at the moment rather than renting they must be mad, or very confused. I'm living in London. Near me you can buy this house for £750k - http://www.findaproperty.com/displayprop.aspx?edid=00&salerent=0&pid=7151116 Or, rent it for £890 per week - http://www.findaproperty.com/displayprop.aspx?edid=00&salerent=1&pid=5315157 6% return. I know where I'd put my money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mrcrabs Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Their TV ad ends with : "Our team searches so you don't have to" , not true, in my experience over the last 18 months. Osborne house has been sitting for ages and slowly reducing. A similar house directly opposite to this house is 170K cheaper ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
