chem1st Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well over a quarter of a million for a flat smaller than council tower block flats. Why did they build such small dwellings? I suppose the situation won't look as bad as it does now when parkhill is finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulgarian Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well over a quarter of a million for a flat smaller than council tower block flats. Why did they build such small dwellings? To rent out, the one bedroom apartment I'm renting now would cost me at least $700,000 to buy, I could never afford that, but I can afford to rent it and use all the facilites that come with it. I think renting will make a big comback in the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECCOnoob Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well over a quarter of a million for a flat smaller than council tower block flats. Why did they build such small dwellings? I suppose the situation won't look as bad as it does now when parkhill is finished. They were build so "small" becuase the land was prime estate in the middle of the city- it was very costly compared to other locations in the city. Same reason why they are so "expensive". If you think they are small you should have seen what I was renting in manchester for nearly £800 a month. I could nearly touch one wall to the other!

scentral Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Looking at the link in an earlier post it seems that, up to January, only 17 have been 'completed', and then: "Some people have been offered no deals whatsoever. All they are told is that they must complete at the original price. I have, myself, been offered three separate (and different) deals - none of which I considered fair, and I'm very much aware that other purchasers have completed well below their contracted price. Right now, they have taken all previous deals off the table and reckon that they'll be serving notice on me and others at contracted price." Tough times ahead...

alchresearch Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Well over a quarter of a million for a flat smaller than council tower block flats. Why did they build such small dwellings? I don't think high rise city living has caught on like in other cities. And the current financial situation has made things worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonjon Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 . I think renting will make a big comback in the next few years. I think you will find due to house prices and mortgage availability renting is at one of the highest levels its ever been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
