  • It's totally a thing.

    Having a small house that needed 60k spending on it in West Hampstead beats having a huge flat in a lovely factory conversion in Hackney Central that's for sure, because now we get to live in West Hampstead instead of Hackney.

    One of the best decisions I ever made.

  • I think the trick is finding a place where the cost of the doer upper isn't just the same as a nice house in the same area minus the cost of refurb.

    As mentioned above developers/people generally are wise to it and the places are priced accordingly.
