Owning your own home

people will pay stupid money to do the very same.
my extended family co-own 3/4 of an acre just outside my home village in kent that was my grandfathers allotment/market garden, it has a shed, half of it it grass, the other half a bit overgrown as it’s a full time job keeping it clear but great for BBQ/parties/camping.
adjoining this is a slither of woodland on a slope that is about 20m wide at the boundary with our field and it narrows to a point where it meets the village, it’s wooded and has no level ground in it. somebody paid £15k for it!? they drive down and sit in the wood for a bit but it’s actually not much good for anything, too small to coppice and do firewood, too dark to enjoy in the summer and no room to have a gathering and no parking.
the family would have chipped in and bought it for £5k as theres a path right up the middle that goes into our field but couldn’t believe the price it went for.
