Soldato
No. It’s not a bad looking area. Just the local pub/shops looked fairly run down really so nowhere we could walk to.
Not that we walk places often though

Boo someone pipped me to the post on a shared ownership place. Next in line incase it falls through, but not holding out hope.
Thought this house searching would be easy, how wrong I was.
It can and does happen. In fact we got beaten to our current house purchase but it fell through literally the day we sold our own house. If not there are plenty of houses out there, Just be sure to look at a house with your head as well as your heart as it can be dangerous and expensive if you go with just your heart.Boo someone pipped me to the post on a shared ownership place.

What would people put in as an offer, for a property that was reduced to £160k on 14/11/2017. A pretty long time for the market around here. (Can't see what it was up for before then). The thing is I can't see why it hasn't sold.
Price looks reasonable, but 6k above my budget.
I was thinking 145k starting and hoping they would take low 150s.
I know, I was using it as an example of what can be done rather than what should be done.Think is 15k under asking of £525k is only about 3% which i'd say was fairly reasonable. £15k off a £160k house is around 10%
I'd probably go in at £150k, although as mentioned the agent will lead you.
That's one thing i've found rubbish about these online agents, there's no middle man, you do your negotiations direct with the vendor so no way to gauge things.
Only non standard sales dont necessarily show on public LR data. The only real way that their story could be true is if they bought the house at auction, or from a bank, ie a repossession purchase. I believe these sales are not shown if they are deemed to be outside of usual market value.
Anyone ever heard of a solicitor needing 6 months bank statements as proof of source of funds i thought the mortgage lender would be the only people that needed these. Also just waiting on these purchaser solicitors to say all enquieries have been meet to satisfaction and still a couple of local searches outstanding on the property we are buying.
