Jennets Park? It's a rabbit warren.
Yeah thats the place. A few friends live their and its a nightmare. No shops, not enough parking so all the side streets cluttered with cars half on the pavements, and due to constant building the main roads have only just been finally finished years after people moved in. Challo said:

A fate worse than death more like. It looks like the set of The Truman Show! How can people bring themselves to hand over money to developers for st like that.Burwood said:

Or not always as the case may seem..........I wonder if banks are now relaxing equity rules because house prices are going up, so it's less risk to have higher LTV
Major concerns about the global market, surely this will impact house prices?

The beginning of a change could happen in just over an hour, to hike rates or not?

It may be that my ISP is on a tea break but the link to that Ropsley property is now loading much slower than before, presumably quite a few PHers on this thread are taking a look? Best of luck with the sale tomw2000
Update: I never expected folk to queue round the corner to view it but we've had 7 viewings.Most of which were tyre kickers imo.
But now have 1 offer at asking price....let you know how that pans out. I'm realistic about such things. But you never know. Might work out. Fingers Crossed.

Perhaps a small fall might result from a global recession. http://www.cityam.com/225986/imf-emerging-markets-...
The usual rules regarding boom and bust in house prices were ended in 2008 and it is clear now that governments of all political colours will do everything in their power to stop house prices falling significantly.

Just had a look at Jennetts Park on streetview. There's plenty just the same in Bedfordshire, totally awful and anonymous. The bricks are too homogeneous, lego houses, and what happened to front gardens? Will these places improve as they mature and trees get bigger? Can they ever be as nice as the (modest) 3 and 4 bedroom detached houses put up in the 70's with good sized front and rear gardens?
People might pave over front gardens and actually have enough space to park two cars, and we cant have that can we.Where we are is one of the last developments (locally) that received planning permission before Prescott and I have off street parking for about 3 cars and could pave over a lawned area and create parking for two more.
