Property Ladder

I think its time I purchased property, but I don't feel settled in England especially Bolton, would it be better to buy an apartmment in Spain or a terrace house in Hailliwell?

Interesting comments about Spain and Portugal.

 

Personally, I think there's a fair gamble in buying in either right now as they look like they are at the bottom of the market.

 

In about 7 years time, you may reap the benefit. Then again, I could be wrong.

 

With relatives over there (Andaluz), I am aware of a beautiful 2 bed, 2 bath apartment which will sell to the first offer of 98,000 euros. Balcony views of the Med, great location (especially if you're into golf) and loads of other features. Only been lived in for one year since new at which time the price was more than double.

 

No, it isn't mine or any of my relatives; only been made aware of it through family down there. Certainly food for thought.

Try buying out of town in the shires, the nearest you will get to gated communities. Decent people unreliant on useless labour councils and paki free.

It's the future, nailed on.

:shok:

she told me I am her one and only, wait til I see her

Should of worded it better I suppose, a bit like Baron eh :)

I came within a whisker of buying a two bedroom appartment in Benalmadena for €169000 six years ago., The same property lies empty and has been for sale since at €60000, no one wants to buy in spain especially an area where most Brits are queueing to come back to the UK.

Is there anyone in here who doesn't know of a Spanish property for sale

 

Speaks volumes if you ask me, I will stick with good old blighty for the time being thank you very much

because there are no british properties on the market?

Obviously but considering the majority of us on here are British there are a lot of folk who know of properties for sale

 

It's the new I know a Huddersfield town season ticket holder

There's very few going cheap, to be fair, as every fucker thinks their house is worth significantly more than it is.

Took Mrs Jules to look around 11 (I think) houses today

 

What a head mash buying property is

Eleven!? How the hell did you get all the appointments sorted to view that many in one day, or were they new build jobbies where you just turn up and look round?

I thought they were knocking Union Road down?

easily done with organisation

 

Half hour between each from 9:30am to 11:30am starts; that's 5

 

Then 6 in the afternoon

 

All around 2 villages / towns

 

And I'm not gonna lie; never heard of Union Street :)

 

They all seem the same now though!

Tha could buy the whole area with your budget.

Tonge Moor, near Matalan. Mostly boarded up. It's blocked off before Dart Mill, otherwise, it connects to the Valley.

When I was looking it was hard enough getting an appointment on the day I wanted never mind an exact half hour slot.

I'd say you've done well there but I bet you can't remember which room belongs to which house after so many!
