What amount of house deposit for first time buyer in suburbs of Glasgow?

October 10th, 2009

We want to move from Dublin to the suburbs of Glasgow in the next few years. we might rent at first but hope to buy our first property there. Our budget would be 150,000 for a 3 bedroomed maximum. How much of a deposit would we be needing to pay approx? thanks.
Gosh, I thought that 20% would be the very most they would look for. Thanks. Keep the answers coming.
Have been on the Gspc or whatever it is called and there seems to be houses for that price. I can understand that the westend would be more expensive and we wouldn’t want to be that close to the city. Thinking of Dumbartonshire or Renfrewshire or something. Not ready to move yet but want to know how much we need to be saving.

A lot of mortgage companies today are asking for 25% so on 150,000 that’ll be 37,500. You may find one who only asks for 10% (15,000) if you’re lucky.

RE;should I relocate to LA from Glasgow?

October 3rd, 2009

Thanks to every one that answered my Q.I have met great gal on line..I’m just back from LA after spending 5 weeks at her place in long beach.we got quite well..even spoke about getting married…I would like to work in the building game thats what I do in glasgow as well as buying property to fix up then rent out.I have a few property’s in glasgow at the moment…

Are you thinking of marriage because you want a Green Card or because you love the girl? It may make a difference because divorces in California can be draconian for the male.
Also, check out what you need to do building work. As an employee you will need a visa or Green Card (neither easy to get). But if you are planning to set up on your own, then be aware that to be a contract builder in the USA I believe you have to be licensed.

How do you rent to DSS/Asylum seekers?

September 12th, 2009

Is it just a matter of advertising and letting them contact you? Or do you register with your local authority? Glasgow property if it makes any difference

I would strongly advise you to rent via a property letting agency for your peace of mind, they’ll handle any problems that might arise and ensure your property is safe.
Since you haven’t mentioned contracts and legal housing agreements I think this will be your best option.
Fineholm who’s office is in Bath Street, I think, or at least one of those streets running up by Central Station on the Argyle Street end have a pretty good reputation.

Bravia advert flats (toryglen glasgow) demolition

September 12th, 2009

this is a recording of the final destruction of the housing apartments/flats featured in the recent Bravia Advert. The recording was made on a video phone (we forgot the video cam!!) and then converted to AVI. The quality of the film is crap but the actual demolition is quite viewable. let me know what you think.
