Only £9000. "Development opportunity" I don't think that'll be on Grand Designs though.

To be fair the one I put up, I know the area its not too bad its not as if your car is going to be vandalised you would feel safe walking to your house after work there are a LOT of these converted houses though probably too many thus the prices of £25 - £50kfurtive said:

Still, at least Rob Smedley managed to get out of it!
I dont know if this counts, and its rented, but outside the property is horrific.
I literally laughed out loud when I saw it advertised on the local paper.

Those projected rental figures are incredible, better margins than illegal drugs.
Are they actually anywhere near achievable? I am not familiar with these grim northern towns... 
£25k is chump change really, even if you could get £300pcm that would still be a pretty good return!
