Posted: 14:59 - 12 Apr 2017 Post subject: Selling house |
|
|
This will the first time we have sold a house given we have lived here for 20 years.
this is our house for sale
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-58205752.html
its cosmetically tatty and we know this.
but with 5 adults , 1 teenager and 1 grandchild living in the house, its difficult enough to live in let alone decorate.
we priced it accordingly knowing the new owners were going to have to tidy it up.
20 doors down...
on the same side of the road.
Smaller than ours
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-58871728.html
and they want £125k more.
Are they just greedy fuckers ?
Are we all greedy fuckers ?
nothing on right move seems to have close to the same value as ours ? ____________________ PCX125 (stolen) - CBF600 (current)
Ride it like you stole it.
ride sensible and not like an idiot and you wont get 6 points in one week.

The new owners don't need to tidy up, you need to tidy up and take some new photos.
Paint over the white bit on the outside wall by the front door.
Clean the glass in the patio doors.
White emulsion to make the ceilings which haven't been painted in years isn't expensive and giving them a quick coat of paint will make them look so much nicer.
You have a bottle of champagne on the window sill by the toilet?
Take another photo of the kitchen which doesn't show the Heineken fridge and corner of a sink.
Fully open the curtains in the living room and open the net curtains as well.
Did I mention take tidying up all the clutter?
You need to make it look as nice as possible, the rooms should be as empty as possible so they look bigger and then people can envisage what they could do with the space.
Some of the adults, the teenager and the grandchild can go for a day out somewhere when you and the other adults do some painting.
That house 20 doors down can be greedier than you because they've dressed it for selling.
Look at what similar properties nearby have sold for to get a idea of how much to expect.
Yours has been on the market since the 18th of February, how many viewings and offers have you had? |

So they can help tidy all the clutter.
The garden shed looks like a good destination for stuff that needs to be cleared from the house for taking photos and for viewings. |

Half a million quid to live in a Streatham terrace??
No doubt you'll sell but I'd look at my half million twice before buying in Stabville. Is the aim to leave London completely? ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

The filter the EA has used makes it look like every white wall in the bedrooms are either filthy or covered in mould. Both if which are really off-putting.
Give it a good scrub, tidy up and lick of paint.
Get down to B&Q or wherever and get lots of something cheap. Go nuts and it'll make things seem much cleaner.
Then update the pictures. ____________________ Like a Yorkie - I'm not for the girls |

Currently? No. I'm sinking some capital into my home this year, which will give me a nice little project at the end of the summer.
Till then I'm on gardening detail, need to remove some trees to make way for the large outbuilding I'm having built and redo
the fencing along the back of the garden as it will be inaccesable after the build,. I'll sort the interior of said building but am
happy paying a bricklayer to build it to first fix standard just for the speed, He's a very quick builder. Will be looking to add
to portfolio at the start of '18 during divorce season. Jan-Feb. Always a good time to find quick sale deals. I have no problem
profiting from the misery of others. Will also be lookng to extend my home some more in summer 18 after pulling down a single
skin side extension and a tired old conservatory and replacing it all with properly constructed house. If all goes to plan I should
have about 50% more ground floor space than the original house has now. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

There's nothing wrong with helping people who're wanting to sell quickly and with a minimum amount of hassle.
He's putting them out of their misery by giving them a big wad of cash and what he then does with the property isn't their concern.
The developer I sold my place in Reading to ended up spending a load of money on it and then selling for less than he bought it for. |
