But you should also see more who buy a run down
dump and who can't afford to do anything but DIY
to turn it into something much more decent to live in.

Run down dumps are too expensive to DIY,

Bull****.

Talking out your arse again I see.

We'll see...

If not then find such a property that is run
down which an average person could afford.

No one said anything about the average person.

JUST that a run down dump is obviously going
to be cheaper to buy and DIY than buying the
same thing which isnt a run down dump.

Remmebr we're talking of those below 30 year old.

Bull**** we are. That is a different thread entirely.

the trade by them up.

Anyone is free to buy one too.

anyone can buy anything including the mona lisa
when it next coems up for sale, was that your point ?

The point is that buying it run down and DIYing it
is going to be cheaper than buying the same thing
not run down, and that if the same thing not run
down is out of your price bracket, the run down
one may not be, stupid.

ofm course perhaps yuo can find a run down
dump that's affordable then good luck.

They are sure to be cheaper than the
same place that isnt run down, stupid.

Yes they are stupid, but that doesn;t
mean they are affordable for teh majority.

No one except you said anything about any majority, stupid.

here's a run down property
Price: Ł649,950
Bedrooms: 3
Area: Chiswick
Type: Terrace

**** all of the run down dumps are priced at anything like that.

So show me them then, there's quite a number in eastern Europe
even France, I know as a friend was looking to buy such a property.

And if the non run down ones are out of your price bracket, a run
down one that you can DIY may well be a viable proposition for some.

Here yuo go

a nice littel place perhaps you'll install a swimming pool.

Few people can afford the time or money
or have the skill set to build there own house.

Bull****. There's **** all skill involved.

There's quite a bit.....

Bull****.

bit of course youre such an idiod you wouldn;t know that.

You're face down in the mud, as always.

I did in fact designed and built my own house from
scratch and did virtually all the work myself as well.

friends in rented accomendation have been
told they aren't allowed to paint or decorate
themselevs they have to get someone in to do it.

Sure, but that aint bureaucratic control, that's the landlord.

Doesn;t change anything it's in the rental agreement.

That doesnt make it bureaucratic control.

Its certainly true that more are more likely to have
their windows replaced professionally than doing
that themselves tho.

Well these all those regulations you have to check for,

There are **** all regulations involved with windows.

you know nothing.

Easy to claim...
