House prices!!

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

This house is lovely, but the price!!

I haven't looked locally in a long time, is this standard now?

For Sale: Underhill Road, London SE22 | Inigo

[Insuflo]

It is if a “colourful enfilade of rooms” is included. I thought enfilade was a way of cooking fish.

[SpringTime]

Asking prices and the sums at which sales are agreed are often very different. Depending upon the agent and the client type and the client's motivations, two identical properties might come to market at very different prices. This particular house might seem expensive but it's got an enfilade (or something) so it must be worth every penny.

100% squeaky floors from what i can see the floorboards are really old 

Croocked walls (as the picture of greem bathroom shows the walls are not exactly straight and there is signs of cracks allover)

Do you speak about the houses of your own clients this way? 🤔

[alice]

Sounds like sour grapes over the job you never got

[Jules-and-Boo]

Inigo is an estate agents that interior designs/ decorates it’s for sale houses so they all have the same earthy tones. And then inflate prices. 
It’s mainly aimed at people who don’t have the imagination to decorate with colour or any skills at interior design.

Vastly overpriced. Larger and more substantial houses in market for less

 

[SpringTime]

They've also got a house listed in "leafy" Forest Gate.

I suppose it must be leafy if it's got "Forest" in the name...

Thanks for asking 

Yes I do tell my clients if something looks like poo

Then we agree on the price and I fix it 

Make it look beautiful 

And they are happy 

[redjam]

Blimey, you lot are a miserable bunch. I agree the price is nuts but the house itself is - clearly - beautiful.

[SpringTime]

We're just jealous. I myself certainly have enfilade envy. Or something.

[Jules-and-Boo]

It is beautiful but it’s only how it’s been done. It’s not structurally amazing and the garden is basic.

There are some fab interior designers in Dulwich, you can make your own home look like a show home

thing is, it’s foreign investors that are also in the market, or did you think that all rented properties are owned by  locals?

[alice]

I doubt it’s going to be a rental property

[Jules-and-Boo]

Probably not, Alice. Never mind

Amazing talent to be able to do structural surveys by looking at an estate agent's photos!

[Jacqui5254]

Love this house.

[Froglander]

It’s quite far from the shops.

[Moovart]

Oh the wonders of the internet....you can curtain twitch without ever leaving the comfort of your sofa. I wonder which unsuspecting house seller will be next in line for the ED critique.

[tomskip]

I think it's an ambitious asking price, yes. 

[CPR Dave]

Would have been worth 4m if we'd got  a Waitrose instead of screw fix.

3000 sq ft of voluminous, lateral living spaces that  have been expertly curated is actually quite a lot for round here.

They’re just an estate agent, they don’t do interior design. However they ‘curate’ what they sell by only taking on certain styles of houses, which is why they all look similar to you. They have a certain target customer who is looking for this style of house and they will list houses all in this period style. Their sister company is The Modern House which does the same but for modernist looking properties (we had them in to value ours)  

It’s an interesting idea as it goes against the traditional estate agent model of being focused on an area (whatever the property type) and instead focusing on a property type nationwide. 
 

They keep a directory of interior designers, architects, etc. On their website. Thats how we found our architects when we refurbished our place. 
 

hope that helps
