olliegog Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) just found this on right move - now living in Herefordshire - it was obviously overpriced to start (and is still overpriced) and being Grade 11 * listed would not help a sale but the smelling of the coffee is strong http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-30028424.html?premiumA=true editted to add link Edited March 25, 2011 by olliegog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frank Hovis Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Actually looks very nice. But the Grade II* listing means a flat "no" from me, you would have to be mad to take one of those on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I don't see any price drop in the propertybee history... am I doing sommat wrong? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tim123 Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I don't see any price drop in the propertybee history... am I doing sommat wrong? PB no longer works on individual property pages. You have to look at the history on a "list" page. And it doesn't look overpriced to me. It's well within the price range of similar in the area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyoto Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 And it doesn't look overpriced to me. It's well within the price range of similar in the area. £400,000, or nearly *half a million pounds* for a house doesn't look overpriced? That's at least 15x local income.

yokel Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I've noticed lots of biggish rural houses appearing for sale (South Herefordshire). The comment about local wages is very relevant. With Local Authority jobs under threat there aren't many organisations round here with the salaries to take on these houses. In the past 10 years there would have been some Escape to the Country types to sell their house somewhere else and move to a relaxed idyllic lifestyle in the country but they must be getting scarcer. Add to that: - the cost of heating oil (there's often no mains gas in some of these places and they take a lot of heating - you can't put pVC double glazing in. You also risk getting your £700 worth of heating oil nicked from the tank in the garden while you're out. - the cost of getting anywhere to work, shop, visit, take the kids etc -vulnerability of small village schools, shops and pubs and what looks on the surface like a good buy could become a liability unless you really have a reason to live there.

Property Bee broke on individual pages as per the thread about 6 months ago (which I can't find because I see that the broken search on this site still isn't fixed) and as far as I can see, still is. There have been no reports of a fix that I should download. tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have you tried reinstalling the plugin? No, I was waiting for someone to come along and announce that a fix was available. We had such a long thread about it when it broke I was expecting this. It is hardly reasonable for me to re-install the plug-in every week, just in case tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tim123 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Er, I actually cut and pasted the proof that it is not broken. See above. No you didn't. I can obtain the exact same information on a "list" page, and you didn't attach anything that proves it came from an "individual" page. (I'm not suggesting that you are lying, only that I might not have made the point about what is broken clear enough) tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bear Necessities Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 anyway, consider this notification that it's working again (if you reinstall it) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
