Proof the property market has gone stark raving bonkers!
Reported in today's Daily Telegraph...
A static caravan on a park near Southampton was valued at £99,950 by a local estate agent and sold in two weeks at that price. The owners paid £38,000 two years ago.
It's got two bedrooms - madness, pure madness!

Tell me about it! I'm a potential 1st time buyer in this area and this sort of thing is only just within my price range [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
I wish I had bought a caravan (or two) for 38K a couple of years ago when I could have afforded it

What's the full story ?
If there's planning permission on the land then it's a building plot for £100k which doesn't seem that bad in the right place......
If it's just for a mobile home then 'kin 'ell !

It's on a MOBILE HOME park on the outskirts of southampton in a prestigious area. My friend has a MOBILE HOME there and it's a very nice area. Down the road a relative of mine owns a house worth 350K. I'm not an estate agent but I know houses are very expensive here anyway

Here's the actual add from rightmove.co.uk
£100K for a mobile home, this has got to be proof that the market has peaked?

LOL - What a great idea Chris! I reckon we could get a caravan in each garden and one on the drive so that should be more than enough to cover a couple of P1's and a couple of Skylines each? Trouble is, where would we store them?!
