Oxfords lovely, and a reasonable rental market also.

there's nowt queerer than folk,
now I've heard some funny things in my time, but I've never heard of someone thinking about buying a second home, a weekend house, in the black country...
'Most work these days seems to be in the midlands so I was thinking of a pad in the middle of the country would allow me to commute to most places (including London) and the family could stay during the school hols.

The whole of the midlands is not the Black Country, waits for CyberT and his obvious reply
The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

Actually it's full of blacks since 1997.

Why don't you just rent a furnished flat. This would be much cheaper. You can do it 3 or 6 months at a time. Remember interest on a mortgage is also dead money. That's what I do. House prices will probably drop from now on but if not they aint going anywhere for a long while. If you rent you can be even closer to work by moving from time to time. The rents in the country are really cheap. IF I remember correctly I saw houses being let for £500 in Milton Keynes for example.

Some really nice places in Derbyshire - plus you'd be close to any potential contracts in Manchester or Yorkshire, as well as the Midlands. Assuming there will be any contracts left...Originally posted by milanbenes View PostSpeaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on TwitterComment

You may have council problems with leaving it empty, since is becoming more and more contentious to own multiple homes and yet only live in one at a time.
Some councils are actively pursuing properties that have been left vacant for a certain amount of time.
Google it (ICBA)Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It's a knobbo plan. Since when is midlands to London a realistic stress free daily commute? Does he own a helicopter. Maybe he does and then he needs a place with a helipad
