Jesus, British homes are both expensive and total shit.

Sweet Jesus, this is stupid.
Bought pic related in US for 120k USD. Has nice yard, basement, and a 50x25 foot loft bedroom/office as well. Great location too.
My house in the UK would likely cost 1/2 to 3/4 of a million quid even in a bad location.
>>57151401
wtf why is there no fence
what city is it?
>>57151448
The back yard is fenced. Depends on the area with fencing really. In some areas, all homes have fences. In others, none do.
>>57151476
>what city is it?
>>57151491
St. Louis
>>57151514
>St. Louis
>wanting to live in a coontown
>>57151514
Well that explains it
>>57151577
St. Louis is actually quite a nice city. Due to it being the most segregated city in the US, you never really have to deal with coons if you live in a white area. They stay in their containment zones. Crime in white areas is virtually non-existent.
>>57151608
The area where I live is safe, nicer, has more/better amenities, higher pay, and better job prospects than any of the areas she is looking at in the UK.
>>57151280
Yeah. Tell your gf to stop being such a stupid cunt with the whole muh family thing. It's not like she won't be able to visit them.
>>57151662
She can visit her family a few hundred times with the housing savings alone, which is what I keep telling her.
>>57151577
Also, my area is 98.1% white, .6% hispanic, .4% Asian (not muslim, chink asian), and .9% black.
Not exactly coon town.
>>57151280
They'd need to build a new home every 7 minutes to keep up with the flood of immigrants from eastern yurope.
>>57151740
That level of segregation is fucking stupid, and is one of the many reasons why America is a shithole. Either have immigrants and welcome them into society or don't have them at all.
>>57151280
i bricked in ur mum's snatch
m8
>>57151811
Our immigrants actually integrate better than anywhere in Europe or Aus. The problem isn't the immigrants, its the American-born blacks.
>>57151811
Segregation is a natural result of new immigrants not having any money.
>>57151811
And again, it isn't the immigrants who are segregated. They generally live in white areas and integrate very well. It is the blacks who live in segregated shitholes because they behave like wild apes.
>>57151848
is a snatch a cunt
Don't do it, like at fucking all. I seriously would not drop that amount of money on that shitty home just for a GF. If you do, suicide is your only option.
>>57151401
>My house in the UK would likely cost 1/2 to 3/4 of a million quid even in a bad location.
No, our cheapest houses in some hole like middlesbrough are like £75k
The area you're looking at (Harlow) is in a commuter town London, people with families and good salaries take the train to work in Central London but can afford a bigger house with a garden, popular commuter towns become quite expensive.
But in the South East of England, all property costs about this much or more.
>>57151927
you are cunt
why allow yourself to get cucked by an inter-continental relationship
>>57152016
Wasn't at first. I lived in the UK for quite a while.
>>57152102
get her to come to the US or tell her to fuck off
>>57151866
Europe is shit at integrating immigrants for sure, but Australia isn't. Not that you have any idea of anything outside of your country, let alone your shitty flyover state.
>>57152134
I lived in Europe for almost a decade lad, so piss off.
Prices in london and surrounding areas are ridiculous..
Thank the fucking sandniggers, russian oligarchs and jews in general for this fucking shit..
Living space is only used as an object of speculation nowadays..
>>57152389
Isn't just around London either. Prices all over the UK are mad, especially when you look at income multiples.
Euro housing always seems kind of crazy. Drop the girl if she won't come to the US. Britain is a shit anyway.
bumppity bump
>tfw still US tier prices for houses here
>tfw soon it'll be UK tier
>tfw making good money now

>betting on people wanting to live in poland
gl mate
What a stupid cunt. Tell her that if she wants ro stay in the UK she'll have to pay for the house/flat. Don't pay for anything anon.
>buying anything for a stupid whore
>especially for a slag
lmao that bitch will ruin your life forcing you to move to that shithole
>>57154003
Y-yeah. But well, I'll be investing in some ex-German palaces too so hopefully when their country is cucked I'll have some tenants.
Like this beaut
http://www.dolana.pl/pokaz3.php?oferta_id=1078
is for 130k$
>>57154125
So either the govt is going to give you a pittance to house migrants who trash it, then they'll sue for for it not being up to standard
Or the govt. will seize it/give you a pittance and force you to sell in order to house immigrants
Memes aside how much work will it require before its up to code?
>>57154125
>130k
>for that ruin
>in Poland
whoo lad
>tfw there are french castles cheaper than some of our suburban homes
i know where im moving
>>57154187
It looks like shit so I guess some 200k$.
>>57154196
I didn't expect an American to understand what historical value is.
>>57154231
"castles" you mean
they're just big houses
>>57154231
I remember that episode of some BBC A Place In... type show where the mentally disabled middle aged brummy woman with next to no Italian was doing better in Tuscany than her rich London barrister neighbours because she was happy living in a shack, was getting to know her neighbours by doing odd jobs for them, and was actively becoming part of the neighbourhood.
Don't know if it's for me, mind.
>>57154319
they look like mansions
>>57154336
I want to do this one day
Hmm, I get the feeling I may have seen this thread before...
