Wanted, a property that needs some TLC

Hello all


My girlfriend and I are looking for a 6 month rental around East Dulwich from 11th April (or preferably Norwood but would also consider other areas). The last time we took a flat we found a wonderful couple on this forum who had a tired property which they were struggling to rent at the top rate. As a professional painter/ handyman (excellent references on this and other forums), I was in a position to make significant improvements to their property in order to make it more rentable whilst providing us with a home. We essentially traded work for rent up to the value of the repairs and then paid full rent once the work was completed.


This particular rental was for more than 2 years but most of the work was carried out within the first few weeks. We paid a reasonable deposit and signed standard ASTs throughout and built a great relationship with the couple who we now consider friends.


Please do contact me if you are in a similar position and you think we may be able to work together on a project. I can offer you references from the couple mentioned and also references from my clients from the EDF and Herne Hill Forums. I very much hope we are lucky enough to find someone we can work with again and thank you for taking the time to read this post.


I should also mention my girlfriend is a registered care worker and works full time.


Best regards


Dave and Nicky

    • More of a Steak Bake kinda thing, then.
    • You might want to try the Peckham Facebook community group. I am located in East Dulwich & have 2 well-used scratchers: A large single post (ideal for an adult cat) & a small cat tree with 2 short posts (ideal for kittens) While the wear & tear is nowhere near as bad as the one shown in the link below, ideally the sisal should be replaced to get the best use out of it (& neutralise the scent of another cat) hence why I haven't donated these to a shelter. You may find this link helpful: https://thegreenmadhouse.com/diy/how-to-repair-your-cat-scratcher But you can just get a brand new one between £10-£30 on Amazon that'll last much longer. It all depends on what type of scratcher you're looking for; material, size, vertical or horizontal. Your little lion will let you know by whether they're currently scratching down or up, like a mat or armchair for example. More than happy to send location & leave in front garden for pickup.
    • Would happily take it off your hands! Preferably in Peckham. Thanks 🙏🏻 
    • I understand that, but I can't really grasp how it works in practice, but never mind 😵‍💫
