Up and coming East Dulwich ??


Recommended Posts

I rate thisismoney for content but this story is a load of lazy old bollocks. AS anyone who's lived here for longe than 3 years knows it gentrified ages ago. Anyone who's lucky enough to own has seen their London home value rise substantially in past 3 years....not because of wide floorboards and exposed brickwork but down to one of the most inflated bubbles since the South Sea crisis. Whilst its not a bad place to buy a home, smugly patting yourself on the back for being some kind of wise investment genius is just naive and stupid.


See all 47 pages on the property thread if you want more. Or just shoot yourself in the head for similar effect.

Indeed a load of old cobblers, but though I would throw it into the forum for local consumption. However in light of the "up and coming" tag East Dulwich is still a cheaper alternative then north, east and west London pricing as unpalatable as that sounds.


Now for a grande extra hot soy with extra foam, split shot with a half squirt of sugar-free vanilla and a half squirt of sugar-free cinnamon, a half packet of splenda, oh and put that in a venti cup with a cup cake....:)

Well, there are plenty of areas in N/E/W London which are cheaper than ED. But if you look at areas with comparable shops/bars/restaurants/etc and distance to central London, there isn't much else in the same price range.

?I could park freely three years ago and now I find myself circling the streets looking for a space. It won?t be long before the council sets up resident permit parking, at which point the area can proudly declare, ?I?ve arrived?.?



...and at that point, I'm outta here.....

I think the clue is in the preceding words, "Dee Gibson, who runs a property consultancy called Velvet Orange and specialises in finding houses for clients in Greater London"...exactly the kind of puffery that allows companies specialising in "property consultancy" to thrive.

I'm with you. Cant see how there would be such a large increase in cars when most properties cant be converted into additional flats.


Total toff.

    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.
