AtW: Vacant shops turned into homes!

[AtW]

There is no comparison AtW. Ebay is not Amazon. Amazon is ££££££££££. IF You understand how it works. I am making more than I do contracting.

Your opinion certainly carries weight

Sounds like Amazon is turning into Ebay with all products being BUY NOW.

Grats. Sounds like you are leveling up from scalping on amazon.

That’s the spirit, you are a real role model!

If only we knew how to be more like you

Amazon. It's like shooting fish in a barrel! But no sooner have you shot all the fish, they throw another 100 in.

If you're the type of person who buys on Amazon because you'll get it the next day, then you deserve what you get, as all of the physical shops area 1/3 cheaper if you can be asked to get off your ARSE and visit them. Otherwise you have nothing to moan about.

I am waiting to buy Bullring shopping centre for a fiver

They're in the process of doing just that near us. The asking prices are ridiculous for the location.

Im looking to buy some shop properties but the prices are still SKY high. Hopefully when everyone loses their jobs in October and the economy collapses i'll be able to jump in and clean up on the cheap.

Boris has just announced it, the Mail tells me so it must be true.

Snap up that Kebab shop as an extension!

It would always have that lovely smell, you'd be constantly hungry

Its hardly a new idea, but a welcome move where the shop isn't ever going to be viable. It is what happened to pubs but the villages became poorer for it.

I suspect offices will go the same way as everyone stays WFH.

Definitely not a new idea.

Most of the corner shops where I grew up were turned in to homes a few years after Sunday trading made them unviable.

A cash and carry where I grew up was turned into flats about 10 years ago.

Some offices where I live now that were empty for over 10 years are now flats. They were converted within the last 4 years.

The main issue is apart from the corner shop conversions due to their locations they don't have enough parking.

I missed this one in Bournemouth, only a few yards from the sea. The shop went for £12,000 freehold ten years ago.
