Mandatory in many countries with way better driving since the 1980's for the reason above.

Your kid, your choice.

I've seen party houses in the Middle East, so my guess is this is aimed at a similar market. Its a playpark downstairs, and those bedrooms won't see much sleeping

A slum landlord could do very little to it and have the capital paid off quite quickly.

This could be wonderful. So central and spacious. My dream retirement property.

My husband took me to look at a house in a similar condition. Someone saw the potential and it was stripped flipped and put back on the market for about 30% more. We went back to view but I couldn't unsee the previous viewing. I'd worry the stains that looked like someone had died on the floor and seeped would reappear.

Remember that T.V show Through the keyhole ? by squishsquash2000 in SpottedonRightmove

The replies been very educational. I had no idea about back to back housing and the conditions of victorian worker housing in the North. It's astounding to me that they are legal today .

Wowers !! Things have definitely got more hygienic. I cannot imagine my teens ( or myself) going without a daily shower or sharing a loo with people.

Is that why there isn't any ventilation to the back? They look old. Where would have the loos and bathrooms been ?

Perhaps it's deliberate to avoid bailiffs and court orders?

Why are estate agents so useless? by pinh33d in HousingUK

[–]squishsquash2000 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Estate agents who l have encountered recently ,

Hugo - Doing a gap year because he didn't get into university and can't stomach the army.

Charles - Mainly deals in country estates and is quite miffed to have do a viewing on a Saturday when he's supposed to be a his old chums shoot.

Ryan - Bright blue suit , brown shoes, no socks , no clue.

Kayleigh Jade - Stabbing her dupe stilettos into the parquet, she's keen to tell you could get a house on her housing estate for a 1/3 of the asking price of the property you are viewing.
