If you view a house, and like it, but it needs about 30k spending on it before it will become modernised - are you within your rights to bung in an offer for 30k less or is that massively taking the piss?
I've only bought one house before which had just been updated by a builder so was all good to go! This one needs central heating, boiler, bathroom and kitchen (both unsafe) and wiring just for starters. If it was me living there on my own I would be able to just to the required works to make it safe but as I would be bringing the young family with me it's a bit different isnt it?
I've been tactfully trying to extract info from the estate agent but to little avail!
So in essence: on a 200k house, is an offer of 170k going to make me an unreasonable twat?
