Re: A Real Scorcher!

Have you brought a new house Lionda ? sometimes I think maybe But then last night in the DIY shop ..............they all know us now and we are on first name terms with some of them ...........Javier in Jerez is a star and well he said "what would he do if he wasnt doing up the house" Javier said "he would be a very board man" LOL Chatting to all these people really improves our spanish we know lots of building terms ................ |
Re: A Real Scorcher!
Yes we've bought off-plan and are almost at completion - after a 3 year wait!! We have bought and renovated a house in England back in the early 80's did really well as we sold it after 7 years for 8 times what we paid for it. We paid £3000 and sold for £24000. That was a fluke though as there was a housing boom :D We almost sold it for £8000 but the lad buying it backed out because his girlfriend wanted a car instead - then the boom and the price shot up :lol: After we sold we saw the lad in a bar and bought him a drink, he was gutted! We were pleased as punch :thumbup:
