And as for the state of the ground. When your house is up for sale do you bother fitting a new stair carpet?
I fitted one to sell my last house! Tart the place up a bit, make it look a bit more attractive to buyers. Get a better price than if we’d left the old threadbare one.
FFS don’t encourage the owner to spend £10,000 on tarting the ground up now, he will then ask £9 million instead of £8 million for the place.
