Not only a massive pylon in the back garden, how is that allowed? but a railway line at the end of the garden

"AGENTS NOTE Please be advised that within the boundary of this property namely the back garden there is a electricity pylon. "

Really, I hadn't noticed.

Looking on Companies House it looks like they aren't partners in one firm as such, but all have individual ltd. companies.

Seems odd or just me?

I know a lot of contractors, working via their own LTD companies, with overlapping skills. I suggested setting up a virtual consultancy....kind of like a central bank of consultants where they all pay a %age to a central admin team who would give out the work. Not one of them wanted to appear anything other than the lone one man band they were used to being. Engineers....no imagination..

Have a better picture.


Even if they paid me, there's no way I'd want to be that close to the electro magnetic fields cast from the high voltage power lines for more than a few minutes. I can't believe that's safe for long term health.

I've lived in worse, £2000 eh, if I could get it for £1850?

Minimum buyers premium 2k on top!

This complete wreck just sold for 60K at auction with £2400 buyers premium on top, I could understand it in London but Bradford?

I was just looking at that, surely must be an error?

It reminded me of the line up for the new series of The Apprentice. I was searching for the "I sweat success", and "I don't know the meaning of failure".

I thought that was a different one as it had a garage and parking at the rear.

Well on that note, I followed on from the video onto Chloe cable real estate on Facebook.

The property is probably ok

It's the absolutely garbage photo's the EA has used to try and sell this that gets me

If that was my property i'd be fuming

You get what you pay for!

"Strike is changing what it means to be an estate agent. For too long, selling your home has meant high fees and pointless jargon. So we're turning the industry on its head - and we're making it simple, transparent and FREE."

I suspect the homeowner took them.

They have managed to make a very small house look tiny.

You might be right actually, but as I (and probably you) CBA to trawl back through 80+ pages, we can just agree that it’s horrendous

Schoolboy error - her Instagram is where it’s at to observe the pinnacle of real estate professionalism - and an update from the man himself that their “RECRUITMENT DOORS ARE NOW OPEN” and you can “earn 10-50k+ a month”. https://www.instagram.com/p/CH5623DDv3I/

(They’ve had “loads of people asking”)
