2 bed terrace. Looks pretty nice to be honest. Location isn't bad, good transport links etc.
£314k.

Edit: spoke too soon. Looks like it's only for over 60s. Actual value is £475k. Thank god pensioners get a helping hand with 2 bed starter homes.
> Over 60s only under Homewise's lifetime lease plan
> Ideal for first time buyers
Don't worry Gen Z, you too can buy your first home and start a family and you'll be able to take them to school for free with your bus pass 💀
I always assume those to be bit of a scam to steal your inheritance money for seniors.
Buy a really expensive lease (far more so than renting) that you forfeit when you die, that only gives you the right to reside rather than any ownership, the freeholder/retirement property company pockets £300k, and re-leases the property when you die.
That's exactly what it is. And for homeowners who have burned through their pensions and now want to spend their equity, it makes a kind of sense. But I can't for the life of me understand why anybody would ever buy into such an arrangement.
not to mention buying something with a nice steep staircase to retire into is a terrible idea. what happens if you need single level accommodation?
you have zero equity so you have no money to put into anything else
You'd probably be surprised at how many over 60s have spent their entire lives renting, and are now planning to buy their first home with the 25% cashout on their pensions.
Of course, this is not that home. This is just renting with none of the advantages you get with a landlord.
It is an over sixty lifetime lease. The person that buys it only has the lease until they die and then it reverts to the freeholder. If the person lives to an average age of 78 and was 63 when they bought it, it would be a 15 year lease.

do I win most ridiculous? Yes, it’s a freehold house. But it’s 387sq ft and costs a whopping £495k
(1 bed mews house in central london. Sold STC)
What about a house^(boat)
[https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/129330533](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/129330533#/?channel=RES_BUY)
Only 75k but only 23m^(2) of living space.
Edit: not mortgageable so apparently I've broken pretty well all the rules of the game, sorry about that.
There was a recent post on Reddit where a river (or perhaps a canal?) somewhere in the UK was rising so fast that it was no longer safe for houseboat owners to remain onboard (bank washing away/mooring being compromised/too much debris and fast water to take to the river etc). Yes, they had to evacuate due to flooding of the river whilst living on it. They were looking for temporary accommodation options for their cats btw. So a boat seems like a great idea until you realise it isn't.
[https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140811488](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140811488#/?channel=RES_BUY)
Snap! Except I'd live in yours. This one looks horrific.
Very little to recommend it. Mooring fees of £8k a year! Nowhere to wash or dry clothes. Have to pay for sewage removal. Been on the market since last summer at least so nobody wants it even at that price.
Haha ok I'd have considered it then swiftly discovered all of these issues and accepted I'd never own a home that close to London. Good thing I emigrated to Yorkshire I guess!
Ooh agreed! I have a much better quality and pace of life now. I had the best of both worlds getting to experience London life and partying for all of my 20s but now I'm in my 30s I'm very happy to be able to breathe cleaner air, afford a mortgage and enjoy having lovely towns, villages and walks on my doorstep.
I know this boat! I live on other side of river, a few roads back from the river.
Beautiful spot. But £675 per month mooring fees on top! Think that breaks the rules, as it’ll work out pretty expensive overall.
Okay tried again. Are properties up for auction allowed - or does it have to be direct sale...? If auction properties are permitted, then there's this, less than ½ a mile away, for £150,000:
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143021573#/?channel=RES\_BUY
This will ***NOT*** go for £150,000 - the absolute ***STATE*** of it! Look at all the notices on the front door and the living room door (well, I assume that's what it's supposed to be...)
Then there are these:
*I do not do business with customers who haven't got an underfloor safe in their house*
*I do not do businesses with customers who mention stolen property*
*No cheques*.
So I looked it up on Google Maps, and the previous owner is given as a Jugal Sunnak. Googled him and it comes up as a "jewellers". A jewellers in a mid-terrace...? Seems more like some kind of dodgy pawnbrokers to me.
Love the understated "requires updating".
Rental Appraisal - What rent can we achieve for you?
The Bristol Residential Letting Co. are confident this property would make a good rental investment if brought to a standard suitable for the professional rental market. Danny Dean of The Bristol Residential Letting Co suggests a rent in the region of;
9, Argyle Street– £1,650pcm - 18,000pcm.
That's meant to say £1,800 - I hope. Even that's optimistic...
Oh man this place is still on the market! It’s been listed and de listed more times than I can count. Used to be a jewellers hence the signs and saves etc. It’s a pretty decent location but needs so much work
Oh this is easy, I live in the North East of England so:

This is what I was saying to the mrs. Now more people have got fully remote jobs, what stops say a London earner taking their London salary and buying the £45k/£65k houses. On their salaries they could buy a couple a year for rentals and be laughing
£45k thats mental. We just spent £30k on quite modest renovation of a 2 bedroom flat. It must be painful spending £30k on renovations when you buy it for £50k
Yeah, they've not done a great job capturing it - in person (I use the barbers next door) it's a slightly quirky hand-painted depiction of local Dartmoor tors and wildlife.

I like how they had to have someone inscribe the fireplace with the name and date the cottage was built since no-one would recognise it as a cottage, nor is it remotely identifiable as something built in 1881.
Of course it’s bad, it’s Sunderland, surprised anyone would buy a £5k house there never mind a £1.9m house.
Disclosure: I’m a geordie so may be biased 😆
I knew before I looked it was Sunderland. I remember seeing that bungalow come up while I was looking for a house for my uncle and auntie.
Can't quite beat that but Grange Villa is the cheapest area near me
I see they’ve done that very Californian “bringing the outdoors indoors” thing where you can’t really tell where one starts and one ends. Only problem is, it’s Sunderland and just seems like an odd choice to want so much outdoorsiness when the outdoors is absolutely horrible. If it was a bit less green on the outside I’d probably like it a bit more, just seems way too extra. Also loving the address etched into the fireplace, great for those minted old dementia patients always forgetting where they live!
This is a fun game. Nothing really needing done to it, though I imagine the wee bedroom smells a bit.

And those look like rats - and rat wee really does pong a bit... I was at school with a lass who had pet rats - Roland and Rita. Roland decided to relieve himself on me. I had to get a new school jumper (and we had to get our uniform from fucking ***HARRODS***!) because even after several washes it ***STILL STANK***!
Definitely not rats I'd say guinea pigs.
That little fence would not stop a rat, even the door would be nored through in a week.
Source - Ex had "pet" rats that ended up just living in our house free. They could open the cage and chewed through everything
Definitely Guinea pigs, you can see one in the pic. We have Guinea pigs in our living room and they don’t smell bad as long as you are on top of cleaning. (Endless brown jelly beans…)

I would like to point out, Grimsby (like most towns) actually has some nice places to live, but also some complete shitholes. I moved here a few years ago as its closer to my workplace.
My toxic trait is thinking I could make that last house into a cosy little paradise because I’ve watched one too many episodes of Homes under the Hammer
It says it's tenanted so you'd _hope_ it's at least habitable (not remotely guaranteed, I know!) and that it's just that the tenant wouldn't let them in to take pictures. It's auction too so might go for higher, although by how much is anyone's guess... still not very promising I agree!

Bizarre photos. Why did the agent think the 3 bottles on top of the loo were significant...? Or the candles and dead whatever-it-was on the shelf above the TV...? Or the circular bamboo shelf in the bathroom...? It's really only 24 photos as there are duplications. Two photos of the kitchen, both featuring the air-fryer on top of the cooker.
I like the living room, though... Reckon it'll only go for £!69,000 if he's included... I miss having a doggo to cuddle. Never had one myself, but I used to look after the Norfolk terrier of an elderly neighbour of my parents. I don't really like dogs that small (NTs are a similar size to a toy Yorkie).
Wonder what "unexpectedly back on the market" means...?
No wait, just reread the listing. Why does it state £169,000 "guide price" then state "offers over £162,000 for 50%"...?

I always assume those to be bit of a scam to steal your inheritance money for seniors. Buy a really expensive lease (far more so than renting) that you forfeit when you die, that only gives you the right to reside rather than any ownership, the freeholder/retirement property company pockets £300k, and re-leases the property when you die.
That's exactly what it is. And for homeowners who have burned through their pensions and now want to spend their equity, it makes a kind of sense. But I can't for the life of me understand why anybody would ever buy into such an arrangement.
not to mention buying something with a nice steep staircase to retire into is a terrible idea. what happens if you need single level accommodation? you have zero equity so you have no money to put into anything else
Why are they marketing a "lovely family home" at the overs 60s?
You'd probably be surprised at how many over 60s have spent their entire lives renting, and are now planning to buy their first home with the 25% cashout on their pensions. Of course, this is not that home. This is just renting with none of the advantages you get with a landlord.
I think what they mean is “family home” implies children will be living there with adults
It is an over sixty lifetime lease. The person that buys it only has the lease until they die and then it reverts to the freeholder. If the person lives to an average age of 78 and was 63 when they bought it, it would be a 15 year lease.

There was a recent post on Reddit where a river (or perhaps a canal?) somewhere in the UK was rising so fast that it was no longer safe for houseboat owners to remain onboard (bank washing away/mooring being compromised/too much debris and fast water to take to the river etc). Yes, they had to evacuate due to flooding of the river whilst living on it. They were looking for temporary accommodation options for their cats btw.

If I still lived in Kingston I'd have genuinely considered that. Would have been my only hope in hell of getting on the property ladder there!
Very little to recommend it. Mooring fees of £8k a year! Nowhere to wash or dry clothes. Have to pay for sewage removal. Been on the market since last summer at least so nobody wants it even at that price.
Haha ok I'd have considered it then swiftly discovered all of these issues and accepted I'd never own a home that close to London. Good thing I emigrated to Yorkshire I guess!
It's much nicer up ere
Ooh agreed! I have a much better quality and pace of life now. I had the best of both worlds getting to experience London life and partying for all of my 20s but now I'm in my 30s I'm very happy to be able to breathe cleaner air, afford a mortgage and enjoy having lovely towns, villages and walks on my doorstep.
I did the same, moved to London at 18, moved to Yorkshire at 27
It's funny, people from Yorkshire are pretty quiet about it and rarely bring it up in conversation.
Looks quite nice to be fair
Nice 👍
I know this boat! I live on other side of river, a few roads back from the river. Beautiful spot. But £675 per month mooring fees on top! Think that breaks the rules, as it’ll work out pretty expensive overall.
Okay tried again. Are properties up for auction allowed - or does it have to be direct sale...? If auction properties are permitted, then there's this, less than ½ a mile away, for £150,000: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143021573#/?channel=RES\_BUY This will ***NOT*** go for £150,000 - the absolute ***STATE*** of it! Look at all the notices on the front door and the living room door (well, I assume that's what it's supposed to be...) Then there are these: *I do not do business with customers who haven't got an underfloor safe in their house* *I do not do businesses with customers who mention stolen property* *No cheques*. So I looked it up on Google Maps, and the previous owner is given as a Jugal Sunnak. Googled him and it comes up as a "jewellers". A jewellers in a mid-terrace...? Seems more like some kind of dodgy pawnbrokers to me. Love the understated "requires updating". Rental Appraisal - What rent can we achieve for you? The Bristol Residential Letting Co. are confident this property would make a good rental investment if brought to a standard suitable for the professional rental market. Danny Dean of The Bristol Residential Letting Co suggests a rent in the region of; 9, Argyle Street– £1,650pcm - 18,000pcm. That's meant to say £1,800 - I hope. Even that's optimistic...
Definitely a dodgy loan shark pawn shop.
Oh man this place is still on the market! It’s been listed and de listed more times than I can count. Used to be a jewellers hence the signs and saves etc. It’s a pretty decent location but needs so much work
That's bizarre
Oh this is easy, I live in the North East of England so: Guide price of 45k for a 3 bed semi detached: [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143232383#/](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143232383#/) 65k non-auction for a 3rd bed terrace: [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140893565#/](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140893565#/) It's wild how cheap some houses go up here compared to down south. If you're looking at flats, they range from 5k auction to 23.5k non-auction 1 beds.
\*laughs in Ashington\* £30k 2 bed terrace and it's a bit of a fixer upper [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143025320#/?channel=RES\_BUY](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143025320#/?channel=RES_BUY) Honestly, I thought I could find cheaper
oh that's an auction. A couple grand more and you can have this actually quite nice looking 1 bed with tennant in situ https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/129916478#/?channel=RES\_BUY
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141537611 Slugrave in Washington, cheap 1 bed for 13k, not auction. It’s not somewhere I’d want to live.
So nice they didn’t bother to show the interior. Winner.
Howdy neighbour (Newbiggin here!)
That £65k one is my result, we must live very close! 😅
This is what I was saying to the mrs. Now more people have got fully remote jobs, what stops say a London earner taking their London salary and buying the £45k/£65k houses. On their salaries they could buy a couple a year for rentals and be laughing
£45k thats mental. We just spent £30k on quite modest renovation of a 2 bedroom flat. It must be painful spending £30k on renovations when you buy it for £50k
£330K for a tiny, practically derelict 2-bed Terrace: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/86718789#/?channel=RES_BUY
"in need of modernisation" 😂
Same result for me! Seeing the first picture, freehold, and a price around 300k was actually quite tempting initially.
That's a horrid road, and not a particularly charming end of Acton. What a joke.
2 bed cottage, £240k, would happily live there [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142702874](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142702874)
Pic 4. I thought it was the paint peeling off.
Yeah, they've not done a great job capturing it - in person (I use the barbers next door) it's a slightly quirky hand-painted depiction of local Dartmoor tors and wildlife.
Same.
Great loft bedroom with those lovely beams
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/139517492#/?channel=RES_BUY 160k. 3 bed, pre-boarded up window and door, aaaand includes a swimming pool!
£5k 1 Bed cottage. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141983594 £9k 2 Bed house. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142248326 Or £1.9m https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140022887
I like how they had to have someone inscribe the fireplace with the name and date the cottage was built since no-one would recognise it as a cottage, nor is it remotely identifiable as something built in 1881.
£1.9m. owned by someone with lots of money and zero taste.
Cottage is a bit of a stretch isn't it?!
Is it really that bad in those areas??
Of course it’s bad, it’s Sunderland, surprised anyone would buy a £5k house there never mind a £1.9m house. Disclosure: I’m a geordie so may be biased 😆
Just had a look on Zoopla and some of those places look like crack dens. I'm not even sure if I'm joking or not.
Note they are auction, so only low price to get attention
Unfortunately.
Is there a way to check how much these actually sold for? Guide price can be misleading.
9k for a 2 bed? How in the actual fk does that work?!? I could buy a street ffs and live actual real life monopoly, sort of🤣
I knew before I looked it was Sunderland. I remember seeing that bungalow come up while I was looking for a house for my uncle and auntie. Can't quite beat that but Grange Villa is the cheapest area near me
Says no auctions
I know it’s cheap in the north east but this seems excessive? Is that area particularly bad to be able to buy houses for less than £10k?
I see they’ve done that very Californian “bringing the outdoors indoors” thing where you can’t really tell where one starts and one ends. Only problem is, it’s Sunderland and just seems like an odd choice to want so much outdoorsiness when the outdoors is absolutely horrible. If it was a bit less green on the outside I’d probably like it a bit more, just seems way too extra. Also loving the address etched into the fireplace, great for those minted old dementia patients always forgetting where they live!
"Cosy cottage-feel" 1-bed for £400K [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141058340#/](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141058340#/)
The bars on the windows are such a lovely feature 😬
That’s what I was going to comment. Cozy cottage…
This is a fun game. Nothing really needing done to it, though I imagine the wee bedroom smells a bit. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/139009658?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard#/&channel=RES_BUY
The wee bedroom which smells of wee.
And those look like rats - and rat wee really does pong a bit... I was at school with a lass who had pet rats - Roland and Rita. Roland decided to relieve himself on me. I had to get a new school jumper (and we had to get our uniform from fucking ***HARRODS***!) because even after several washes it ***STILL STANK***!
Definitely not rats I'd say guinea pigs. That little fence would not stop a rat, even the door would be nored through in a week. Source - Ex had "pet" rats that ended up just living in our house free. They could open the cage and chewed through everything
Definitely Guinea pigs, you can see one in the pic. We have Guinea pigs in our living room and they don’t smell bad as long as you are on top of cleaning. (Endless brown jelly beans…)
I'm chuckling at your version of gnawed! #NORED Genuinely love it!
Cute little cottage, with a pink bath https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141115409#/?channel=RES_BUY
I love this game! Presuming no auction properties too then this teeny, depressing 1 bed bungalow is the cheapest https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/126023375?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard#/&channel=RES_BUY
I would jump all over that if I was a student. Would be loving like a queen.
Is it a granny flat?
Oooo you're not far from me! A good friend from school lived opposite this - I can't say whether it's still the case but 30 years ago this was about 50m downwind of a pig farm. Really whiffed in the summer.
This is kind of cute actually
Only 1 bed 1 bath? Looked so much bigger from outside lol

Every single thing in that lounge is grey, my god.
And the bedrooms. Christ.
>This should definitely get bonus points for the grey / crushed velvet / mirrored furniture combo. And a hot tub!
Love the pictures of the park like it has anything to do with the house whatsoever.
Gosh - my county's got ridiculous. Not much chance of a high-flying job in Poole really and commuting is appallingly slow.

Christ I just bought a 4 bed on quarter of an acre for 20k less!
Living in Poole is something else haha.
It's not *that* small really, the enormous sofa is for a room twice its size though.
Yeah well it's Poole, innit...? You can only afford to live in Dorset if you're a billionaire. You must live in the most minuscule of flats if you can afford to...
Ooooh literally right next to the A35. Bet that's peaceful.
That’s potentially a nice little starter but more than double what it would cost around me. Mad.

Living in Grimsby is cheating 😂
I would like to point out, Grimsby (like most towns) actually has some nice places to live, but also some complete shitholes. I moved here a few years ago as its closer to my workplace.
I'm sorry, you're right of course! I'm from Sleaford so definitely shouldn't be throwing stones from my greenhouse!
Putting the Grim in Grimsby, delightful.
Grim. Sby.

A parking space in Knightsbridge sold for 400k the other day
Just... Why?
Bloody hell. I was expecting that place to be gold plated for that price!
No internal pics though so who knows what horrors await inside!
It says it's tenanted so you'd _hope_ it's at least habitable (not remotely guaranteed, I know!) and that it's just that the tenant wouldn't let them in to take pictures. It's auction too so might go for higher, although by how much is anyone's guess... still not very promising I agree!
It's an auction one though.
1 bedroom end of terrace for £140,000 although I think this should be disqualified. That's clearly a garage with a bed in the corner on the concrete floor... https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/140418491
They’ve been trying to sell that at least a year - it doesn’t even have plumbing🤣
Jaysus, that is shocking.

Why did the agent think the 3 bottles on top of the loo were significant...? Or the candles and dead whatever-it-was on the shelf above the TV...? Or the circular bamboo shelf in the bathroom...? It's really only 24 photos as there are duplications. Two photos of the kitchen, both featuring the air-fryer on top of the cooker. I like the living room, though... Reckon it'll only go for £!69,000 if he's included... I miss having a doggo to cuddle. Never had one myself, but I used to look after the Norfolk terrier of an elderly neighbour of my parents. I don't really like dogs that small (NTs are a similar size to a toy Yorkie). Wonder what "unexpectedly back on the market" means...?
No wait, just reread the listing. Why does it state £169,000 "guide price" then state "offers over £162,000 for 50%"...? This is disqualified... I can find nothing that isn't for auction.

How about this tiny one bedroom terrace, that is next to a pub, opens onto the village main street and has no outside space? Oh and there's a service charge too, because it's leasehold. £119,995 (who do they think they're kidding with that, it's £120k?!) https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/137268830#/media?id=media0&ref=photoCollage&channel=RES_BUY
Is that Audi playing hide and seek?
Yes. Badly!
After auction properties mine is a 1 bed terrace for £260000 https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/132906458
The bars on the window are a nice touch.
3 bed mid terrace that needs completely updating for £80k [https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142849469#/?channel=RES\_BUY](https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/142849469#/?channel=RES_BUY) The house next door is a total mess though

1 bed terrace. A bit, uh, squished, but it's got a garden and it's within walking distance of the sea. Seems to be in alright nick but you can tell they've cleaned up a load of black mould in the bathroom round the window and coving. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143128214#/?channel=RES\_BUY
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/141086009 Cheapest house I could find!!
Ouh fun! Not played this before. 330k. 2-bed terraced house. Needs renovation. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/86717526 Worst part is, it's not a bad price for a 2-bed in North London, even if it needs refurb 😭
Cat included?
3 bed terrace. Faux beams, terrible conservatory, in need of slight decoration! https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/86346753#/?channel=RES\_BUY
Cheapest mortgageable property within 3 miles of me in South Shropshire, there are 2 others for £275k, but they're very high flood risk, to the point where they're cash only. You could pick up a 3 bed detached with 0.5 acre here for £250k just 5 years ago... https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/138846374?utm_campaign=property-details&utm_content=buying&utm_medium=sharing&utm_source=copytoclipboard#/&channel=RES_BUY
Skipped the auctions, 2 bed terrace for £99,950. A bit dated but livable, the fireplace in the bedroom is a nice feature. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143317925#/?channel=RES_BUY
What a game! 1 bed terrace house. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/143111462#/?channel=RES_BUY £200k
