300K for a ****ty little 2 up two down terraced cottage that needs *major* structural work - as in the entire front of the house needs knocking down and rebuilding.

The housing market really has gone bonkers in the South East. Property like that would go for 5K in other parts of the country, assuming anyone could be ar$ed to take it on.

Madness...

Oh, yeah forgot that. LOL But, they have to replace all the floors and the roof first don't they:P

That woman's stoopid Ab Fab design ideas are indeed laughable.

Now she's decided that the back wall needs replacing too.

So, that's the *entire* building they've replaced now then.

Crazy...stupid...mad.... Way more money than sense.

I live down the next road from this property and prices are ridiculous. There are other really bad conversions happening at the moment in other properties nearby.

That offer of 500k had to be bogus - looked like bravado on their part after realising that they had lost money!

Wouldn't have minded if she was fit, but she was a hag who never smiled and had a stupid voice. Shooting would have been too good.
