What a fascinating site. The most expensive thing they've got is only £500k
and it's awful.
If ever there was conclusive proof that the north is shit this site does it.

I love the way they call derelict properties "investment opportunities".
I could buy that outright - not that I would want to.
Having looked at some of the properties on offer in Newcastle I am
genuinely surprised at how expensive some parts of the city are and then
how appallingly derelict others are. Don't know why they just don't
flatten places like Benwell and start again. There was one place up for
auction with a bidding range of £1-£10,000!

I reckon we could easily get the pair for 30k.
Of course, as clubhouses go, it's about out of the way for the London boys

Well there has been a lot of redevelopment in and around Newcastle
recently.
Some places have done very well from it - prices of flats down at the
Quayside are sky high now, whereas 10 years ago you couldn't have given
away a place down there.
Other places haven't faired so well, possibly because developers have
just bought cheap land and knocked up a load of nice houses, without any
further development of the surrounding area. The Quayside, for example,
is now very cosmopolitan, with trendy cafes and bars, the art gallery
and the opera house.

Yes, I saw that one as well. It's obviously a bargain given that the
estate agents hadn't been able to get access and it was in an area
that's about to go under a compulsory purchase order.
Nice.

That reminds me of the age-old question: if a married couple from

still be brother and sister?

too. A little village called Etherly, just outside Bishop Auckland. In the
local rags from up thataway there were houses in pit villages being
advertised for sale. ISTR that individually they were fetching about £4,500
or if you wanted to buy a job lot you could get them for £1,500 each.
Presumably the pit had closed.
Later in life I got it together with a lass from Derbyshire, she owned a
house in a little place called Hodthorpe. Well we split up as you do but are
still in touch occassionally. Turns out that she sold up and moved to the
next village in the same year as I bought my flat in London, her three
bedroom terraced house with garage but next to bugger all garden fetched
£24,000 in 1999.
Hay-mazin' wot you can buy in the frozen north for fuck-all-pound-fifty!

I grew up in the North-East, but moved to North Devon in 1984. One
night in the pub in mid-1985, one of my friends pushed a newspaper
across the table to me - they were advertising _streets_ of terraced
houses for 11,500 quid - for a whole block of ~15 houses.

Well part of my family lives in Bishop Auckland so I have certainly
heard of Etherly.
Not at all surprised about the prices you quote.
>Hay-mazin' wot you can buy in the frozen north for fuck-all-pound-fifty!
Well yes but look how much you have to spend to make it worth opening
the front door and even if you did I'd imagine it would be smashed to
smithereens within hours.

You can buy a property for £10k. It costs say £30K to make habitable.
The area it is in is so badly run down with such dreadful people living
there that you either (a) never get the job finished because so much is
nicked from the work site or (b) if it ever is finished the local yobs
will smash the place to bits and steal anything decent before you move
in. In other words why bother buying it in the first place.
I can't imagine that outsiders with money would be welcomed in places
like Benwell, Elswick or at a guess somewhere like Harton (for the South
Shields shit hole example).
Better?
