Why is British real estate so freaking expensive?
For some reason I was watching this show over here in Canada, and this couple had a budget of 130 000 pounds, roughly 260 000 canadian dollars, and they were showing them tiny little two bedroom townhouses that would probably sell for 110 000 DOLLARS here. I know England is densly populated but outside of large cities that can't account for all the excess. How do low income people even find a modest appartment over there? Do you pile 6 people in a 1 bed shack? You Brits should cause a real estate bubble crash by everyone over there refusing to by a house for 1 year. Then, you'll get a nice four bed detached house for your 130 thousand pounds.
