What Happened Next...

I've had to write a couple of property-related articles for magazines this week, which may appear in various publications coming through your letterbox. That meant I was looking for something different for this week’s Avenues article. This in turn got me reflecting on some of the weirder moments we've had in the business.

To say you get to see all walks of life is an understatement. I’ve picked 4 stories to share.

 

1. Mark, our Lettings Manager, once sold a house in Walthamstow to a guy who subsequently let it out. The tenant then re-enacted the more unpleasant parts of the film Hannibal, becoming nationally infamous in the process.


2. Back in Watford we stumbled upon a property that had been used as a major Cannabis factory with enough electric sockets to power The Harlequin Centre and more compost than a Wyevale Garden Centre stock.


3. Then there was the time where the couple buying wanted to negotiate to have the owner’s cat included in the sale. In fairness to the owners, they were emigrating so it did need a home but including it in the fixtures and fittings list was going a bit far!


4. In Cheshunt I sold a house where the owners let the buyers have access to the property between exchange and completion to do some works. They didn’t expect them to touch the garden and were devastated to discover they had turned the whole thing over with a mechanical digger ready to lay a new lawn.  I couldn't understand what the big deal was until they explained the family dog had been buried there just 2 months previously and they were planning to move him a little more sympathetically.
