There's still hardly any decent houses coming on the market round here. Those that do sell quickly. Still lots of wildly optimistic pricing going on as well. New builds being reduced, so there is...
In the next 15 years, I expect a lot of petrol stations will close, as ICE cars die out. It occurred to me today that a lot of properties that are currently blighted by being next to or near a petrol...
Wouldn't it be boots underground if they were at the coal face?

The Tories have taken this, streamlined it, and are running with a firm "No more boom" strategy.
On the plus side, does this mean there will be more timber and materials available for us DIYers? Maybe even price falls as well?

Not goods news for BTL landlords looking to get out of...
Lots more reductions on the local market today, and I'm noticing a lot of "no onward chain" properties at the lower end of the market, which is undoubtedly people getting rid of their BTL properties.
The reduction instamp duty is still going ahead, so that's some good news.

Don't forget there will need to be a lot of lorries to transport all the electricity that the solar farm harvests; especially at the end of summer.

Are you saying that 'gammon' is a racist insult?
How many rings has that cooker got?

Lots of bungalows round my way are being bought, refurbed and flipped. Probably one of the reasons you can't get any of the trades at the moment - they're all too busy working for themselves.
Moving into rented property during a rising market seems like a bit of a gamble.
I bet a lot of those were because the prospective buyers couldn't get a mortgage. The lenders almost seem to be acting responsibly regarding LTV, and while high LTV mostgages are available, interest...
