FTB , narrowed below 3 options. Unfamiliar with UK market. All I learnt is from chatgpt. But need real opinions.
-2 b 1b , service charge : 650 per annum
-lowest service charge
- Price: 199950
- ok to start with 190 to 195 K
-2b 2b , service charge : 1350
- extra bathroom
- Price: 200 K
- ok to start with 188 to 194 K
-2b 1b, service charge: 1740
- top floor brighter
- chain free
- Price: 210 K
- Started with 188 to 194 K then said 200 K is a hard stop for me
-All three have similar square footage.
- 1 and 2 on the market for about a month
Questions :
-Over past 9 years the price has dropped about 8%, why ?
- is there room for negotiation? Can I negotiate? How do I start ? Don’t want to say very low ?
- Another thing I noticed is that there are 5 listings from same property, is that ok to neglect? There is ground rent review happening next year.*
- which one would you choose if you want to ladder up to a house later ?
