Property prices in the rest of Britain are still booming – but in Liverpool, you can pick up a four-bedroom house for less than the price of a can of Red Bull.
Taxi
driver Jayalal Madde was one of the first in the queue when houses were offered
for £1 – and snapped up a house with four bedrooms, three living rooms, a
cellar and two bathrooms.
The
double-fronted terrace is just 10 minutes away from posh shops such as Harvey
Nichols in central Liverpool.
The
incredible deal did come with a catch though – the houses in Toxteth were
offered to buyers who were prepared to renovate derelict properties, and
guarantee they would live in them for five years.
Jayalal,
49, has spent £30,000 renovating the home in Cairns Street and hopes to move in
by Christmas.
oh boy!!! Like seriously?
