Woops he / she had a slip of the finances. What a silly blighter. Bought at ave. £130K each and is selling 8 months later at ave. £90K. He should have paid attention in maths class and certainly studied compound interest. Anyone fancy being a land-lord. £40K loss on each house x 11 = £440K. Lardlord when asked his oppinion said, 'You know you live and learn - I thought house prices always went up'. Landlord also added it was an easy mistake to make and the mortgage lenders kept throwing money at him. He also regrets this as he will have to sell his 4 track, plasma screen, stop going to the race track and budget for other of lifes neccessities.

OnlyMe Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 (edited) From the Rightmove link: Most of the properties are currently let and are capable of producing an income of circa £50,000 per annum Come on spit it out - how many ARE let and what income ARE they actually producing.

Its time to buy Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 at worst 2 could be let and the rest vacant or unlettable without major works. Could be a real nightmare, rather than a goldmine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

music man Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 Is nobody to comment on the £440K lost in a year as this is a hpc forum. And are we to assume that this is an isolated incedent? How many more are to come this year and aren't we gonna enjoy this crash? In my oppinion the crash has started and it's called a crash because once it hits a critical mass it doesn't stop untill the full force is relinquished. There's a heavy load behind this market force and to stop it will take much time. Patience is a virtue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed - although I feel we have seen a sucker's rally since the cut in Irs and if they cut them again, we could see another blip. It's only delaying the inevitable, of course...

Without_a_Paddle Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I knew this was fishy. Music Man is spinning you all a lie IMO. If you go on houseprices and look up the last time number 158 sold it was in 2003. FOR £20k 92 03/03/2003 £20,500 Ter. F/H Map 158, Nottingham Road, Derby, City Of Derby, DE21 6AQ If the LL bought the rest of the houses at these prices I would guess he is looking to make a mint. Perhaps Music Man can work out for us all how much PROFIT the LL has made in two years? WHAT A PLONKER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Music Man can work out for us all how much PROFIT the LL has made in two years? WHAT A PLONKER Yep - someone may have made a mint between 2003 and 2005 but the sucker who bought in 2005 hasn't done so well? Get the facts and make your own minds up. It does say 08/03/2005 sale dates. Then came the next buyer and a year later we see what we have now? Don't shoot the messenger 'Without a Paddle' and check for me my eyes aren't fooling me. Anyone else please check I'm not goin insane. But good point on the one 2003 purchase, there are no others though to review. So the point to me is someone is £440K down, however there are apparently 2 flats as well. I say he's the plonker. Anyway a little journalistic licence and a good headline is worthwhile. Get back to me on the 2005 date WAP man, and tell me your thoughts? Edited February 11, 2006 by music man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

music man Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 (edited) Wow it does appear I nearly made a major one here, why didn't anyone tell me this before I was wrongly named and shamed. http://www.houseprices.co.uk/e.php?q=158+d...ottingham&n=100 http://www.houseprices.co.uk/e.php?q=158+n...%2C+derby&n=100 Derby Road, Nottingham and Nottingham Road, Derby have the same results. Fair point for the spanish inquisition. There's not many 11 flat job lots that are so unfortunately (for one of us) coincedental. I think maybe it's too big a roll of the dice for me to back down at this stage. It will be fun to see that we are both correct, both wrong or some shade between. At least we have realised a mix up and can get on with discovering the truth. Edited February 11, 2006 by music man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
