You just keep missing my point. Those cold damp and poorly insulated houses are not new but old houses. And old houses get renovated too if they are worth it. Surely you do not live in a house worth 600000 pound ? I am also not presuming a max cap on property prices just that newly built houses will not be cheaper than the property value. Prices like you linked are normal for inner cities. Thats true for any crowded place high in demand. The money europeans can't spend on size gets spent elsewhere. I am sorry that you have to put up with such horrible houses but I doubt the whole UK is such a hell hole. And I have seen how "great" US houses can be and I learned to appreciate the european style of quality vs quantity (if one can afford it). Ofcourse there are fine houses in the USA too but if they are 5 times cheaper than a european house of the same size that stands on cheap property than there is definetly a lot of things wrong with. it. |
Dude what the hell is your point?
"Old houses get renovated it they are worth it" - what has that got to do with anything? I was highlighting that location is the key factor in price, not the building material.
"Normal for inner cities". Really. You are telling me that $137,000 will get you an apartment in most cities no bigger than a snooker table? Proof? Or another guess?
No it doesn't. The money Europeans spend goes mainly on land; we don't have noticably better homes than anywhere else. And yes, the entire UK is like that. You need to stop with your inane, rediculous guessing and actually look up what you are talking about because you are just being incredibly ignorant and arrogant as you think your unfounded ideas are magically true.
If you are just going to make more unfounded bullshit claims, just leave the thread as you are being as constructive as a stick of TNT.
