How to Spot a Money Pit...

Not all properties are worth refurbishing. Before you buy, look out for these red flags:

Foundation Issues – Cracks or sloping floors can mean costly repairs.

Old Wiring – Rewiring can cost thousands and delay a project.

Damp and Mould – Often a sign of deeper structural issues.

If you spot these problems, price your refurb conservatively

Why Is the Hot Water Always on the Left Side of a Sink? 🔥💧

"I’ve been asked so many times, ‘Which side is the hot water on again?’" Let me settle this for you once and for all – it’s almost always on the left-hand side! But why? 🤔

It all dates back to the early days of indoor plumbing. Most people were right-handed, so plumbers designed sinks with the hot tap on the left. That way, you could hold objects (like a pot or a mug) in your right hand and adjust the tap with your left. 💡 It was a simple solution for convenience – and the tradition has stuck ever since!

If you’re pricing up refurb projects, these little quirks can give you insight into older property designs. 🏡 Next time you’re standing at a sink, you’ll know why hot is on the left!

What other old design traditions have caught your attention?

The Hidden Costs of Property Refurbs...

Not all refurb costs are obvious!

Watch out for:

- Planning permissions for structural changes or extensions.
- Waste removal fees for skips or specialist disposal.
- Delays caused by weather, materials, or tradespeople.

These often overlooked expenses can quickly add up, so include them in your budget from the start.
