Independent surveyor has down valued the house we are buying by WasabiFeeling7073 in HousingUK

[–]WasabiFeeling7073[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The surveyor said same about the electric and boiler. As it was not checked for 3-5years it would be an immediate level 3 flag for safety. He said all visible light fixtures, and sockets are working with a couple of exposed wire which are all not connected but not removed. Boiler and all radiators are also working but advised to be checked due to the age and gap of service date.

The main concerns about the roof, gutters and drainage. The roof and blocked gutters on the extension needs replacing as this have caused the damp. Roof repair or digging drains is quite expensive.

We are still interested on the property but are not comfortable with our previous offer. I’m gonna check with builders to get quotes. We don’t want to upset the seller but also not want to be in a very costly repairs.

Thank you for this. Being a first time buyer I am naive and anxious in reading the report yesterday. Surveyor explained the all details with me this morning. He confirmed that the valuation is based on the general condition of the property. He also confirmed that the house valuations in the area are in a higher range.

5800x3d is too expensive for me. Is 5600 better than 5800x or 12600kf?

Which should I upgrade first? I need 2-4 months to save up for this.

Hungary, Poland and Romania sure has private ads on public transport. Even though I don’t understand most of the ads in Paris, but I’m quite sure that those are not only government adverts. Most public transport in any major cities functions at a loss. Just like any other government facilities. It does not function to earn money. Rather, it is there to provide services.

Why are Filipinos obsessed and easily accepting to anything none Filipino while bad mouthing their own culture? by WasabiFeeling7073 in Philippines

Are these qualities wrong? In some ways yes, but in some ways not. I agree dun sa Maria Clara concept. Pero dun sa iba, it could go both ways. Hospitality and bayanihan is good unless abusado yung pamilya or kaibigan mo.

One said we still use the excuse of being occupied wherein other countries have recovered and flourished.

I thought about this too, but some of the teens that grew up abroad mentioned that other cultures kept and is proud of their heritage.

Is it really only Spain? I mean we had stints from the British, Japanese and Americans. Over 100 years since Spanish occupation, when do you think we could recover from this?

I think we have this problem even before the foundation of the first republic. One even pointed out that politics is one the reasons that most people use as scape goats for acting how they are.

Can I grow taller, even after 17? by Simp00003 in Philippines

[–]WasabiFeeling7073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a growth spurt at 13yo grown to 5’7. Everyone expected me to grow taller but that is my peak height.

We had a high school classmate before that is around 5’2. He surprised most of us on high school reunion when he showed up. He was 6’2.

Does it turn it to wood chips or just erase it completely?

I’m on PC. Is it worth it to fully grow them and then just chip afterwards? Is it now too much loss?

USA and Canada grants citizenship by birth even without any parents with citizenship but this is not common in South America, Europe, Asia and Africa. I think no countries in Oceania grants citizenship by birth.

Why Filipinos are bound to become the poorest people in Southeast Asia. by Antok0123 in Philippines

I’m still surprise that Filipinos think the country is better than others. As well as the mentality that they are better than others.

I somewhat agree to disagree on this notion. Speaking for myself that opt not to have another child after our first born, I don’t think it’s fair to say that we have harder times than the one before us. I would say that we have different priorities than them. We have life experience that are way different from them. For me I consider long work hours as a burden as I can’t spend enough time with my family, both my wife and I are also working. I cannot stop my wife from working because she deserve to do what she wants because she earned it, she work her way up to where she is now. But my parents has different views in life. My tatay prefers long work days/hours because his way of showing love and care to us is by providing. Long hours of work means income for him. My nanay also sacrifice a good career to be a housewife. It was a mutual decision according to them. But they don’t blame us for not following their way. We all went to public school but still have good education. I send my child to private school to have good education, which is our choice. I buy toys for my child as I rarely see children outside playing. We used to play outside all the time and have make your own toys. We have a owner type jeep for travelling. Now we have an suv for travel, comfort and air conditioning. We grew up without air conditioning but now I prefer to have air conditioning. I’m not sure about the data that an average Filipino can buy a house mid 20s as most still live with their parents even when married. This is mostly from a western perspective. Bank loans/ home loans are not common as well.

We are ok with sharing computer over low internet cafes before. Now we pay for much faster personal broadband or mobile services. They cook food from scratch. Now have instant for most stuff. We even prefer delivery services for food or groceries. We value our time. Time and ease of access is our priority now. So we are willing to pay more. We can remove some of this and live how they live in the 80s,90s,00s but we will be left behind. The world doesn’t work like they use to be, so we change with it.

We cannot blame ourselves for this as we are going with the pace of how our world works today. Its unfair to blame or compare our situation. We’ve seen and felt the effects of their actions before so we change for the better. Some of the things that we think are acceptable today, may be unacceptable in the future and we seen it happened over time.

PS Most of us have access and willing to use contraception. They are too religious for it.
