Indeed, they should of been, because with all the recent press on leases, it is only going to get harder to shift a place like this, with 2 lease payments against it.

"Agent's Notes
• There is a fee of approx £250pa - payable to RMG for maintenance of the car park
• There is a fee of approx £170pa - payable to the Land Trust for maintenance of the play area and SUDS (sustainable urban drainage system) "

I like to imagine some of these people finding this site, the heart drop, hand shaking on the mouse as they realise the weeks of rows and crying when they were forced to lower their asking price are providing sick entertainment to strangers on the internet.

Chop chop ******* only another 40% to go and some mug might buy it.

This thread must be death of a thousand cuts for some of them. To us ten grand, twenty grand off is nothing, a game of percentages. To them that's money they've probably already earmarked, dreamed of spending, every price cut is another step back down the ladder. Some of these have gone from retiring to a villa in the Bahamas to a trailer in Skegness. And they have to realise that they're utterly dependent on a powerless government to bail them out otherwise they'll be lucky to get dumped in a council care home and abused by someone who can't even speak English.

Funnily enough...heard some east European bus drivers talking 2 years ago about getting into property, to make big money...then there's the bloke I know who stays at an airbnb regularly...the polish bloke and all his mates are all into property and trying to fill rooms to pay massive mortgages.  They all want more. So the bust could see a lot if broken foreigners heading home leaving nowt but a trail if debt. What a mess.

 

And they wonder why we voted to leave the EU.

Most simply wont sell, it looks like the feet have been kicked from the bottom of the market.

The PB interview last night on watchdog was worth seeing, it seems, correct me if I am wrong, they are over valuing to get business, I'd personally not touch a PB house as deal with people with an emotional attachment to a price is not pointless.
