can you take a photo of the luxury view?

I accept your (parent's) house is upper middle market in your part of the country, (although you still won't tell us where it is exactly - why is that?), but it's middle market compared to most places in England

part of country?

pretty sure all major cities in scotland the average is £150K?

regardless, all it woudl mean is there are just mroe expensive houses in one city vs. the next, that does not change the fact that it is upper middle, why would doctor who works in Manchester be less rich vs. birmingham, the answer is he isn't less rich, it just means there are more expensive houses in that area

quit this area crap, £350K is upper market PERIOD, seriously read a property magazine.


THIS IS THE FINAL EVIDENCE FOR YOU TO STOP GOING ON ABOUT AREAS, I HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE BUT THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING BELOW AND REPLY, DO NOT IGNORE

Two areas in Northern island, one average is £150K, other £200K.

There is only 10 miles between the two locations, that is a 20 minute drive!!!

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?ie=U...w8D&ei=mhQKUdbDLo-z0QWjr4CAAw&ved=0CDMQ-A8wAA

see, but there is £50,000 difference between the two, but it is not a whole other world working in a pub and renting a flat in Belfast vs. north down, the living expenses are the same.

would I become 30% richer if I moved 10 miles from one place to another? with your "area" theory.

of course not, that would be completely ridiculous, every man working in a pub in belfast would just move 10 miles down the road and be richer!

can I afford a better property.


no!

It just means there are - on average- more expensive living spaces in north down than there are in Belfast.

THAT IS ALL. PERIOD.

ALSO GOD PLEASE READ A PROPERTY MAGAZINE!!!

for all we know you live on some remote island miles off the Scottish coast, or in the middle of nowhere in the glens. (why won't you post your location?) Obviously a house in the centre of Edinburgh will be worth more (although it will be smaller). 350K is not the same everywhere, even within Scotland.

by the way, if you vote for Scottish independence the value of your parent's house will plummet. Then it will be even lower-middle. just a word of advice

can you ask one of these 'girls' to register here and confirm this?

I have read it and understood it, and accepted that you can't listen to reason.

so you don't talk to that girl any more? convenient. You haven't posted proof of any one of your outlandish claims

how not?

my points are 100% valid, you never provide any evidence to support your theory, your area theory is flawed, if you understand it, then how can you not change your opinion about this area crap and accept 350K is upper middle FOR ALL AREAS

so your parent's house is worth more than his house? Big win for you I guess :whistle:

He lives in his own place with a girlfriend nearly 10 years younger. I'd say that's a win for him

accept 350K is upper middle FOR ALL AREAS

not in Kensignton and Chelsea or Hampstead or St. Johns Wood. 350K would barely get you a dog kennel in those areas.

350k pounds is 600k american dollars

Average home price in midwest and southern america is 160k

Northeast and west is 250k

His home is definitely at least upper middle class

in UK upper middle class house would be 6-700K, if you consider class = money, which HPM apparently does.

but does it matter if the house is lower-middle-upper? it's his parents house. Gloating 'nah nah my parents house is worth your parents house' is very immature and quite pathetic.


He's not rich anyway - he's on welfare - JSA and admitted he eats only £1.50 worth of food a day

Job seekers allouance,

QC I said my food bill is £4 a day , not £1.50, you keep twisting things and lie about what I say, that is about £120 a month, I am on scottish slimmers, if you are a heavy eater and 5 9 i guess it woudl be £200 a month, but £120 for a 5 4.5 guy with scottish slimmers is about right, my stats are like a girls stats (Height, BMI etc.), my food requirements are like a slim girl.

and I already prooved that IT IS £4 a day, with links to tesco and everything, yet you just ignored that like you always do.

even someone said "where do you get a fish fillet for £2", then I supplied a link showing i get one for £1, and it is always £1 from all frozen food areas and makes.

then I got called BS on it and said "you know nothing about living expensises", when it is clear the other psoter knows nothing b/c I showed links to how much my meals costs.

I used to to take 1-2cm away from my waistline, I don't anymore.

still fail to recognise my post on housing, or in fact you do, but then ignore it somehow?

why did it not make sense.

YOU MAKE no sense, I just prooved it, how can living 10 miles away from another region make you poorer?

its a pretty simple question to answer.

QC said: in UK upper middle class house would be 600-700K

really, it isn't I would consider that "Upper Class" prestigious homes.

there is

working class
middle class
upper middle class

and then, "upper class", like homes bruce willis would live in! that is like £700K, b/c two people would have to be £150,000 to afford that mortgage, and doctors/lawyers earn £50,000 a year, two doctors/lawyers could afford a £250K living space which is technically upper middle,

seriously £700K homes are beyond upper middle, just because you open up a property magazine and £700K is the most expensive home you see at the end of the magazine, that does not make it upper middle

my family home is in the upper middle class, in fact, even if it was worth £250K it would still be upper middle, I didnt want to say that to anyone here since a couple of posters really are clueless to these things, and I'm surprised at the initial reaction of them regarding £350K as not being upper middle, but sorry to say anything 250+ is upper middle, £150K IS middle, and 75K is working, 400K+ is upper class/prestigious homes.

look at tspc for homes worth 600K+

http://www.tspc.co.uk/results.asp?area=0%23&type=1000.1255%231000.1255&minprice=600%2C000&maxprice=&bedrooms=0%23255&streetname=&daterange=

there is only 7 of them, in the entire tayside area, and they are all massive homes, 6 bedrooms (all en suite), triple garage, on a golf course, 11 bedroom villa, and another home with a 2nd flat on top of it, that is not upper middle class, that is a higher class, think bruce willis/tom cruise type homes.

whereas upper-middle class homes as still somewhat affordable by 1 generation of people. £600K homes are THE MOST expensive on the market.

and stop mentioning the same "inner london" places, honestly any place in the UK except these inner london places that is a lot, that inner london location is all flats for that money, that is how people live there, if you moved 10miles from
Kensington and Chelsea you would go from a 1 bedroom flat to a 4 bedroom detached, does that mean you went from poor to rich by moving 10 miles, yet still have the same job? NO.



£350K for ALL MAJOR CITIES IN ENGLAND (bar select inner london regions) is Upper middle class, not that regional average matters, but since you are "area obsessed", here is the average of each major city in England.



Two main cities in scotland
  • Dundee (£125K)
  • Glasgow (£130K)
ALL OF THEM, PERIOD.

Oh QC, you know how this will go lol! HPM does post proof, he posts links to surveys all the time. He does know women, as a he kissed a girl at a party years ago. He's an expert on property, despite not owning his own home etc. My gf posts dispelling his claims, but he won't have it. His "proof" overrules everything. He doesn't need to validate his claims with anything other than links to surveys. If that doesn't work, he will change the size/colour of text, or put it in bold.. This means he knows his stuff *rolleyes*

a fillet of fish for £1 must be Tesco basic range. If your mum is so rich, can't she afford to buy Tescos finest range?

:dunno:

It's part of a 4 pack of Birdseye breaded fillets, along with the cheap Marrowfat (tinned peas) he linked too. For someone "rich" he eats like he lives on a council estate! I see he is bolding what he writes for emphasis. Totally legit!
