We are thinking of buying a house for son and a couple of his mates for the duration of his university years. Financially it stacks up and we would break even (ish), so long as we get back from the house broadly what we paid for it, in a few years time. Is that a reasonable expectation?
The house he is currently renting is riddled with damp, has mushrooms growing out of the carpets and yesterday the toilet stopped flushing. They called a plumber and the plumber said there is a very serious drain problem. Nice eh?
How volatile are house prices in Sheffield? I'm a bit worried as I see from Zoopla that house prices may not have recovered after 2007, is this the case?
