Renton 17579 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I can't even hang a painting, hasn't stopped me buying some absolute wrecks, culminating in my present house. It can make sense though, financially, if you budget in the cost of professional renovation. But things inevitably will go over budget and you shouldn't ignore the stress and inconvenience. Very hard to get hold of good tradesmen at the moment too. These property programs like homes under the hammer wind me up with their renovations, usually 3 or 4 times less than it would cost the average Joe.

Not that I'm telling anyone what they don't already know but all the reno shows I've worked on nothing is as it seems and a lot require so much work after the contestants have finished that the actual costs can blow out enormously. We've just moved back into our's after being out for 6 months for renos thank fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've chosen another offer 💩 Now got to decide whether we blow out our buyers, move further afield, rent temporarily... Ah shite, sorry to hear that. Think how much the daft cunt that got it must be overpaying by though. You wouldn't catch you overpaying for a house. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 38535 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Speaking of house shows, that bald Tory cunt from Location x3 is currently picking up wedge for doing Wickes ads, where he repeats the made-up word “housebarrasment” ad nauseum. I hope a wall falls on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We chose our area because of the primary school catchment area. Mrs wanted to choose one for the local secondary but I figured that, in a decade, the excellent schools might be shit holes and the shit holes might be excellent. Plus, once I teach him how to play as a false 10 he won't need schoolun' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
