the place we looked at has been on the market for 2 months and according to the EA, there's been some interest but fuck all offers. it really is a state inside, which would explain the reticence for buyers to commit (beige tiles everywhere, walls that want knocking down, stippled wallpaper, hasn't been redecorated since the carter administration) but the lovely old dear that has lived there for the past 20 odd years just wants to gtfo, so realistically we could go in with a low ball offer and snap up a house for under 500 000 notes in se26.
we've been tossing 80,000 notes as a rough figure for redecoration for shits and giggles.
obviously a structural survey could reveal that the place is sinking into the earth, who knows.
