When I was a kid they auctioned a lot of the houses off in Newcastle west end starting at 50p with the condition you then done them up. Some lucky buggers became property millionaires in the space of a year or 2. Done them up & sold them off 1 at a time. I think the average price the houses went for was about £200.

No one will last five minutes in the Clarences or Haverton Hill, its not called Beruit on tees for nothing, Many of thoses houses were only built about 1990 ish when I was doing security for Stockton council, within only five years many of them were derelict.

well, at least someone has the choice to buy it, the cheapest house i've seen down here in the last few years was £90K and that was a semi detached "cornish unit"(ex council house) on the edge of a small village.
