That is on hell of a drop - I'll offer £251 for it - cash!Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostA year ago my house would have sold easily for £240K.
Now up for sale at £230K, estate agents advise £205K to have a chance of sale.
One house up Altrincham road should be worth £250K, now up for sale at £200K, seller will take £180K!!!
House I really want to buy is a lovely detached bungalow - one up the road (in much better interior condition) sold for £320K. The one I want to buy was £280K, now £260K meaning £250 with the stamp duty threshold.
Utter madness!Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
