buying a house with friends

by **Steve** Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:26

do you think that is a wise move?

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:28

I wouldn't ever consider it , but there again I'm on the property ladder so see where the need comes from. You have to feel sorry for kids these days

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:29

OMG NO! Buy a house with friends? Recipe for disaster - it's hard enough buying a house with your partner! Laughing

i was watch a tv show 3 best friends 2 bloke and woman bought a £400,000 house together I dont want to s

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:34

think it's a bit mad and a sure way to fall out with your friends

by **Steve** Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:36

i think it crazy also I dont want to s

£400,000 is a lot of money to mess around with, if it was cheap flat or something probably could understand

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:37

maybe renting together is ok just to get out of home and when doing college etc but to sign up to a mortgage and then find out your mates are really a bit annoying I dont want to s

by **Steve** Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:38

i know

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:41

Yes, what happens when one of them wants to move out? Or get married?

What a nightmare! I dont want to s

by **Steve** Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:44

what about 1 fall in love with one then found out she/he bats for the other side and he or she make a move Laughing

by Guest Wed Jan 09 2013, 21:45

Buying, no. Renting, yes.

it would be a bad idea if you were going to live in it but not such a bad idea if you were building up a property portfolio.
a couple of my friends have done this and it works on the rental income
both are married and there property's are with a letting agent

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 04:21

We would love to buy a house but have no chance cant afford to, so renting will have to do Sad

by **Andy** Thu Jan 10 2013, 09:36

I think its summut done in desperation by most to get on the ladder, but rarely works for long doh

I started a business with my best mate yrs ago, we were really close, and had such a laugh together Big Grin

... but after a couple of yrs, and work got a bit thin, the cracks soon started to show doh

.. and I decided to let him buy me out Straight Face

(it folded 3mths later Laughing

Buying never but renting is okay. I won't mix any serious financial investment or advice with friendship

by **Kathy** Thu Jan 10 2013, 10:49

Whole can of worms, so many things that can and do go wrong, OK if you can afford to buy them out, but if you could do that why go ahead with it anyway.

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 11:53

I'd rent, but I wouldn't buy. Having said that, the other day, my friend asked me if I wanted to rent somewhere with him and his girlfriend. Considering this friend was pretty much creepy-stalking me for three years before he finally moved on... NO NO NO! I dont want to s

There is when Mr. Creepy and Annoying spies on you while you're on a computer to see what your email address is... and then emails you non-stop for the next two weeks. Tongues

Gasp! You should call the police! Surprised

I don't know - the picture hasn't shown up! Tongues

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 20:46

No, I can't see it either - what's the pic, Steve?

by **Steve** Thu Jan 10 2013, 20:47

your blocking it for some reason

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 20:50

I cant see anything either

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 20:52

I think it's a problem with the site. When I entered the link manually, it just showed the homepage of that website instead of the picture.

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 20:53

Nope, not blocking it - it's obviously something that, subconciously, you don't want us to see............naughty boy!

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 21:55

I can't see it either and I have set my pc to block nothing cos I'm a perv Tongues

by Guest Thu Jan 10 2013, 21:59

I can't see it either
