******* amateur. You know the Night Bus stop on Kensington Church Street? On the side with the antique shops? I used to live in the flat with a front door that opened that onto the bus stop. Never ending stream of double deckers rattling the whole flat.

AtW, there is worse than Kebab shops.

New build properties frequently sell for less than what they were brought for if sold within a couple of years.

So she will get nowhere.....

That's true and due to the 'new' premium which is included in a valuation, which once its been owned is lost.

Oh that's something somebody who is paid to value the property would have no idea about!

If she can't sell for the price she bought - sue whoever did valueation...

"I can’t move because nobody would buy the house,’ she said."
Is she suggesting someone would have to be stupid to buy the house?

Not for the price she paid.
A land lord will take it at the right price, and a tenant will rent it for the right price as well.

I wonder if she had a survey done. The surveyor would of at least mentioned the busy A road will put off potential future buyers and make the house harder to sell. Although my guess is she would just of ignored that advice anyways.

how can you view the house and not notice a massive road behind your garden
the mind boggles

[Paddy]

Instead of whinging they should take down the fence and turn it into a greasy spoon takeaway.

It would make a nice followup article if or when somebody actually buys it.

What about her neighbours, perhaps they'd be wiling to get extra parking or something?

"I'm not stupid" she claims....

Well I need to take my car for a drive, so now I know where to go.

I think the day every noisy car, motorbike, van, bus and lorry is replaced by silent electric vehicles is a looooong way off.

[OwlHoot]

Most of the noise is from the tires, motors are quite quiet these days. Electric will only reduce the fumes.

And with poorly maintained electric cars there will probably be a load of ozone pollution to contend with

Roads like that will be twice as noisy in the rain, so what's the betting all of her viewings were on nice sunny days?

[AtW]

its not even in a BrumKebab delivery area!

It’s right outside it!
