      Post code snobbery. It could be a house they would never look at if were any where else. But because it has the " right" Post code they would purchase and pay more. I had my eye on a beautiful brand new ene town house. But because it was the wrong Post code for hubs. He refused to make an offer. We ened up in a town house also and end unit right Post code. And ended up the rental neighbours next door. With police out twice a week and four or five times every Friday night was part night. Needless to say, three years later. It finally sold at a loss. Because the land lord could be sweet talked. Made life hell for the the three other owners. All of which sold within five years.

    Berkshire has become the epitome of the label "bedroom community". Home owners head into London for work and recreation, then come home to occasionally garden or sleep. Fewer villages have a community feel; fewer people even know their neighbors. Sad, but true.

Despite being in a generally affluent part of the country, Wycombe contains some considerably "deprived" areas. In 2007, a GMB Union survey ranked the Wycombe district as the 4th dirtiest in the South East and the 26th dirtiest in the whole UK. Yikes!

      It seems that way, but it is not, because the first and last responsibility you have as a buyer or potential tenant is to make yourself happy, and NOT the agent. Agents want you to buy or rent, and you want yourself to be happy, so especially with homes, self satisfaction should be paramount, because otherwise you will be miserable in that house every day, and will have to soon make plans to move again, which is where I am at this very moment because I moved in to the apartment where I am currently living against my own wishes

    Reflecting on my own house searches, I'm thinking that realtor work must mostly be about handling unreasonable people with kid gloves until they see reason. I've been living in the second house I saw for over 20 years. It was fine, well-built, decent location, good value. Still is. A bigger garden might've been nice, but...I mean these people aren't looking for architectural marvels, all the houses are quite ordinary. What exactly do they think they're going to do in them that it takes this much angst to find something?

      There are two types of needs. The Natural one, about which you are talking, and the artificial one, which is also a need because when met, it brings folks much pleasure and comfort which end up supporting the satisfaction of the Natural need. For instance, when people, especially children, are in bed sick, they have the Natural need which is to get better, but an artificial need such as entertainment can ease their discomfort while recovering towards the Natural need

      To be fair, the house that they bought still needed a lot of work. It's just more cosmetic than structural. The problem with the first house is that they would have to extend it. A lot of people want to do work but not to that level, which is understandable.
