How much money did you make on your most recent house sale?

[EasternFall]

• Bought in 2010 for £ 260 k
• Sold in 2016 for £ 465 k
• Increase of £ 205 k in 6 years
• Location: West London (Zone 4)

Anyone else? It would be interesting to see the differences around the country. I realise I have benefited massively from the London property market, which is bonkers IMHO.

We bought last year £390 k, sold for £490 k this year.

The house we are buying, they bought in 2014 for £715 k, selling to us for £1.05

We are in Hertfordshire

One pound five? You've got yourself a bargain. Or it's got serious dry rot.

Bought 2011 for £165k, just sold for £190k. Somerset.

£1.05 k!
I only wish it was one pound

That still doesn't make sense! £1.05m

Bought in 2011 for 116k
Sold in 2015 for 121k.
3 bed semi, 4 years old in Manchester.

Not me, but one of my good friends recently sold her 1 bedroom flat up in the midlands.

Purchased in 2006, sold in 2016.
She made 10k on the sale price.
In Sutton Coldfield.
She had a mortgage on it so walked away with maybe 15k profit.
Now trying to buy a home in London with her OH.
No chance!

Completely different market and world compared with the insanity of London property prices...you lucky people!

Bought 1998 £200,000, sold 2004 £596,000.

Bought 2004 £600,000. Not selling but current valuations is at £1,000,000+ May not get that post brexit, who knows, but not selling for a long time so don't care.

Last house we bought for £220k in 2003 and sold for £410k in 2008 - its unrealistic to look at these figures though without knowing more information. For example in our case we built an extension and renovated throughout.

We bought 11 years ago in Birmingham and have just put our house on the market for 7k more than we paid for it. I don't think we're going to make much on the sale!

Bought 2007 £270k. Sold 2016 £535k. South West London no major improvements. Just paid off our mortgage on modest West London house with the profit. :)

Bought 1998 £275,000
Sold 2016 £1.450,000

Bought in 2013 for £275k, sold in 2015 for £365k (bought next one for £355k :))

London!

Wowwww savage!!!

Sadly ex got half
But am buying up north for £400,000

Bought in 2005 £125k, sold in 2013 £133.5k south east London/Kent border. It was in negative equity for a few years.

Turquoise that's not indicative of the area though as I sold a house 2 years ago for £395k that I had bought 3 years before for £295k in Sutton Coldfield.

bought in 2007 225K, sold 2016 330K (Oxford)

Purchased in 1990
Sold in 1998
£8k

Eight thousand pounds

2 bed purchased in 2008 for £175k, sold in May for £325k, that was South East London.

No mortgage but we do have to pay capital gains tax on the £150k. I've just purchased a 4 bed house in the North West for £175k.

Bought in 1999 for £155k
Current value estimated at £750k but we have extended and added loft conversion.

Bought 2005 £365000.
Sold 2014 £610000.
In Hertfordshire

Bought end 2010 £220. Sold end 2015 for £425. London zone 3 .

Bought in 2004 for £245. Recent value £415. All of that increase has been in the last 3 years. We stayed out last recession and focussed on clearing the mortgage. Plan to move to south Coast and be Mortgage free next year.

That's in bedfordshire
