Owning your own home

Definitely a porn studio

I know.

Can't be too wide of the mark.... just had a cash offer of $425k before 10am (less than 48 hours on the market).

Holding out for a few more viewings though.

I can hook you up with an excellent carpenter who could do your flooring. He's not on here but we met at East drinks cos he's a regular there.

Cheers dude, PM me his details and I'll get in touch.
We still need to get it cleared by the freeholders tho...

In case someone offers over-asking?

Or did they literally offer you dollars? If so, which dollars?

Zimbabwean dollars...?

Canadian

3 bed maisonette in Tooting.
£650k.

Toot toot!

Is bonkers.

Ha. I spend all fucking day working with USD, I didn't even spot that.

GBP.

Got another 10 viewings already booked in for Friday. Currently assuming a final price of ~£440k.

Stop the world, I want to get off.

Needs a Tesco Metro to be truly desirable.

True. The sky's the limit with a Tesco Metro in the building...

Just exchanged.

Herp derp.

Congrats!

Tim, where roughly in Bromley you getting? We going to be neighbours again?

I saw where it was the other day, but didn't get a good look as I was desperately trying to keep up with @Soul's shiny new motorbike on my Vespa. He's gone way south, not like us urban Grover Parkers.

I hope not!

Just sent you a whatsapp with the link.

Woohoo, shit just got real. Well done.

Ugh hate that nickname all the estate agents have seized on around here, Excellentstow, waaaankers

I had a look in an estate agent window yesterday; seems like 3 beds in Nunhead now cost you £799k. When I bought mine in 2012, £450k was the upper limit. Where the fuck is the money coming from? Is it just people selling up their Hackney flats and upping the mortgage?
Oh well. If there isn't a catastrophic crash, my moving to the mountains and opening up a boutique cycling palace is gonna happen sooner rather than later.

I know what you mean, the numbers are just abstract at this point.

Ours almost feels like a bargain at under 300k now...
