They've been throwing up apartment blocks for fun for the past few years. Any bit of land come available and there are apartments to rent there.

https://mapartments.co.uk/

Just had a look through these (they called me up too :conf2:) they're stunning, but the compact (lets call a spade a spade here) is tiny and even the available medium ones dont have a very big lounge area. I think as well it doesnt even include council tax in the total cost? so even though it says £203 a week, it'd end up being £950 or so a month with council tax wouldnt it?

Im not really how council tax works tbf we dont have it here sksksk

Smithy 10-08-2020 04:43 PM

Oh i'd get 25% for living on my own but STILL

Smithy 10-08-2020 04:44 PM

Anyway there's another one ive found on the second link you sent ammi and shes gorgeous!

Ive requested more info and vieweing and i'll book numerous viewings in one day too

Smithy 10-08-2020 05:24 PM

Ugh, found a gorgeous 2 bed for £700 if anyone wants to go halves

i remember renting my palatial flat in Maida Vale. Directly below Bros :flutter:. I could be in the Warwick Castle rub-a-dub inside 3 minutes once i had dodged the crowd of girls at the front door. LOvely part of town was Maida Vale.

i was about 4th floor of Clive Court, but it was too hot and you could not control your own heat so I moved to St JOhns Wood.

Y'know ... if you've got enough savings to pay six months upfront, you could afford the deposit for a shared ownership mortage.

You need proof of income for a mortgage tho.

I remember Kenyon Lane! That's a nice neighborhood.

If not already planned, try to plan 3-4 days there to plan viewings, get a feeling of the area, shops, time to take the bus etc And Grindr mapping obviously :laugh:

Also, very important, but go to each place you visit by nightfall/evening before or after the viewings. If it's a noisy area by night, or noisy neighbours, that's usually a showstopper.

Make sure you actually are able to view it fully before you sign / agree anything

The flat might look nice but it could also stink of piss.

Ammi 11-08-2020 04:23 PM

.....oooooo, my...

Ammi 11-08-2020 04:23 PM
