An estate agent went on a rampage in a luxury home his firm was selling while the owner was abroad, a court has heard.
After a heavy drinking session, Joseph Young, 23, collected the keys to the £650,000 house from his office so he and two friends could continue to party.
Once inside, the trainee estate agent and friend Bradley Conway, 23, ripped out door frames and smashed chairs, statues and picture frames. They poured Tipp-Ex fluid over duvets and damaged a vintage car in the garage.
Conway was acting 'like a raging bull', smashing windows and hammering keys on the piano in the house, Guildford Crown Court heard.
He then stole the keys to the owner's Skoda and took it for a drunken joyride with Young. They smashed the car into a tree near the four-bedroom property, writing it off.
The pair, who caused £5,200 worth of damage inside the house in Deepcut, Surrey, were arrested by police soon afterwards.
So a £650K house in Surrey is a "luxury home" now is it?
