  • My place has doubled in value since I bought it but so has everything else so that's kind of irrelevant.

    I'd say this is very relevant unless you want to retire in London. If you can keep it and rent it out to cover cost or even pocket you some money, you then have a pretty risk free investment sitting around costing you nothing or even making you money. As London prices are very likely to rise faster than most other places, you'll cash in nicely when you retire.

    But yeah, be prepared to have every single thing break. Mate of mine rented their newly renovated place out and had a call after a few weeks that the extractor fan "just fell off"

  • the extractor fan "just fell off"

    Funny you mention that. Ours just exploded this morning. There's two pieces of it on the floor and some burnt bits in the ceiling. Happy days :)
