He surely has shown all the charm of an estate agent thus far.

I reckon he's just yet another troll.
Mr Bim of Bar - how much did you pay? Which block is your flat in?

So what fun can e have with the likes of him when they move in? Big noisy welcome party outside? Banners?

Also, I bet those flats get burgled loads, especially given Granville shops next door keep getting broken into.

Depends if they have 'porters', which would make it even more costly to live there.

The claphamite thing may be a misnomer since the spiritual home of the tribe is an imaginary extension of Chelsea.

Hardly getting over it.
First cunt I hear refer to Brixton (or even Stockwell) as Clapham East or East Clapham get chinned!

Pisses me off that Thatcher, the diseased old cunt, legally disbarred Local Authorities from operating a "first refusal" clause on Right to BUy sales. Up until (IIRC) '84, if you'd bought your council house, you were obliged to give your council first refusal at the market price.

Looks like I am in the dog house before I even move in, did not mean to offend anyone, think I had better keep my mouth shut as I am not allowed to voice my opinion.

Whatever gave you that silly Billy idea? You're absolutely entitled to voice your opinion here, just as other posters are equally entitled to comment on what you're saying. That's how a bulletin board works, you see.
So, which block are you moving into and how much did you pay?

Don't worry about it: the courtesies of everyday life are not always observed here!
It is however an entertaining and intelligent forum.

Simply not true you can't have an opinion, and don't be over dramatic. If you actually want to be part of the community, you need to think about what impact you're having on it. There are people on here from all walks of life and all incomes- we just all need to think about each other's perspectives

FYI the main reasons you were put in the dog house were:
- comparing Brixton with Clapham
- suggesting wealth is an indicator of astuteness
If you are not a troll and end up sticking around, in years to come you will look back with amusement at how you managed to get both these things into your first few posts on urban75.

Do you think most of the flats at Brixton Square are being bought by buy-to-let landlords, or owner-occupiers?

I think you are all grooming me to turn me into a lefty, I am already feeling guilty for moving in lol.
Editor I have bought in the 2nd phase, they have not released the prices yet, the equivalent apartment in phase one was £360,000 but Barratts have said because phase one was sold out in one month that the price may go up, so will have to wait, I have reserved an apartment so fingers crossed they keep it at the original price.

They won't even tell you the price? If it goes up, presumably you can pull out at no cost?

From what the salesperson was telling me the majority of the first phase were bought by buy to let investors

Yes £1000 deposit fully refundable if I decide to pull out
