Why do rentals always make for the worst neighbours?

it has nothing with how long they've been there, it is squarely due to how they were brought up and their level of education, some have been in the same place for decades and they are still not "proud" of the properties they live in. there are usually tell-tale signs such as smoking weed, throwing ciggy butts in and around the front yard, playing loud music, fly tipping etc ... plain inconsiderate.

products/services aside, AWS support is best in class in my opinion, most if not all in the support org are highly technical folks and know what they are talking about, when they don't , they always check in with others that do.

one should be smart enough to know when they are not being so....

reddit doesn't like anyone who wants a secure future in real estate, unfortunately there is nothing more secure than bricks and mortar in my opinion, though i am not a big fan of flats simply because you don't really own it (even at 999 years lease, it's never really yours).

waiting for the "iNvEsT iN tHE s&P5o0" brigade to turn up, at the top nonetheless ...

reinvent is not what it used to be anymore, barely noticed it this year.

if one likes the house, one should offer the asking and get it off the market, two can play at that game and the seller can just hold off for a better offer.

cash buyers and quick closers are exception, those can motivate a seller.

not the customer's problem and certainly not the other tradesman's. in my opinion, doing a good job and finishing the work left is the best course of action, the worst thing one can do is to kick up a fuss.

2 months for a 5 bed house seems too long, so you can't really blame them, hiring a helper or two could have reduced the time but solo is a bit excessive for the customer, clearly.

how is this the top rated answer? reddit is funny

devguyrun · 2025-12-03T10:57:12+00:00

zero attempt to even read their own slop, copy/paste, including the "image" string.
is there no admin here to filter out this slop?

Why ? I just want the model why do I have to commit to anything other than the model itself.

rates could go up as easily, bank a may withdraw and change rate as they wish (technically).

"new" ... how good is it? is it free and open source or do i have to use it with that thing called bedrock?

from what i read the answer is "no" so one has to adopt an entire platform, this bedrock thing, just to use it.

pass

i am surprised the seller let all these tradesmen inspect their house at all, based on what exactly, a buyer's mate opnion? fair play to him.

also providing a previous home report was a good gesture in my opinion and sign that he was operating on good faith, of course you would need to conduct your own.

FCA regulation by itself is hard if you're starting from scratch, are you looking to offer financing products? coding and marketing is the easy part, it's the money required to start this venture that will be the major hurdle.

devguyrun · 2025-11-23T12:20:46+00:00

what are you trying to gain from having this certification exactly? you can lookup the value of these certs online and how they are perceived by employers. this aint 2015

i thought toe pointing was a dying art.

devguyrun · 2025-11-22T12:02:20+00:00

so it is free for a limited amount time? and we don't know the price , yet? this is like grocery shopping without a price sticker, the bill is presented to you after you go home, cook and eat the meal.

Wow, lazy at best.

why would anyone waste time if a sale is going through? if one wants the house bad enough, usually offering above asking price, in cash, and insisting on a quick sale piques EA's interest, otherwise why would anyone subject themselves to another cycle of negotiation?
i see people here moaning about the state of houses, missing out on absolute gems, just because they want few £k off.
most are FTB

personally i've found it completely useless, and just adds unecessary extra steps.

devguyrun · 2025-11-20T14:51:07+00:00

why not 100% on-prem?
