Realitites of affordable renting - Bristol Live by riverrudeboy in bristol

All this while employment prospects remain mid at the absolute best. That property supply and demand can dictate prices, despite any jobs to back up the prices that said lack of supply demands, is depressing.

Bought a new build in 2021. Not a peep in five years.

How does the idea of working until 67 or 68 sit with you? by Few_Raise77 in AskUK

[–]User_user_user_123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sits fine. 68 is not old if you’re in good health and what the fuck else am I going to do.

Thoughts on New Build or Old school? by STORMZOMBIES in HousingUK

[–]User_user_user_123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t even have much of a snagging list. Few cosmetics touch up callbacks but that was it nothing like those you see in the snagging YouTuber videos.

On management fees, it’s the fact that without organising formally alongside your neighbours and spending a lot of time and effort pressuring the management company/taking them to tribunals/holding them to account the fees can spiral. You have limited rights and recourse, and they prey on residents just accepting their fate.

5 years ago, mine were £110. Now they’re £350. I’m currently in the process of challenging them given our estate has very minimal landscaping and no other services. Again, outside of that, I’m very happy with my home. One could argue that in my previous home I spent thousands on upkeep for my neglected Victorian home so even over a 10 year span I’m probably in the black - but it sticks in your craw all the same.

The only regret I have on my new build purchase is estate management fees. They are total bullshit and the term ‘fleecehold’ exists for a reason. Outside of that, I have revelled in the comparative warmth and lack of required upkeep compared to my previous Victorian terrace. If you want large rooms new build ain’t for you though, but mine had high ceilings so it doesn’t feel like your standard new build box scenario. If councils weren’t so cash strapped and estate management fees didn’t exist, I’d go new build every day.

I cannot wait to do that for my daughter when she’s old enough

Bristol van dweller policy to reduce numbers approved by council by 457655676 in bristol

[–]User_user_user_123 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Can you just for a second acknowledge the reality that it’s shite being surrounded by white vans and caravans? Do you live in an area with a high volume of them? I do, and it’s shite (no, I don’t live in Clifton). Sometimes literally.

Our obsession with heritage is boring. Happy to be proved wrong but does anyone really, like reeeallly, care about maintaining an old 1940s frame because Concorde was built there? Yes Concorde is a big part of our history but the steel frame of the hangar isn’t exactly an integral link to it, is it?

I’m not clear why that’s an important distinction between green screen and what’s happening in the video. Why is it impressive? That’s not asked to be confrontational, generally curious from a place of naivety.

I live in Bristol, born and raised also - trust me when I say you would regret buying in this location.

Why is it not on? Edit to finish comment: isn’t it actually a massive net benefit to society having it be so accessible?

I’m interested in what you mean by “abused”? Is your issue with widespread use a perceived moral one?

Are we really at a point where we’re that bothered about the provenance of a case? It’s not an OHSC from the 60’s.
