House-hunters slam estate agent for asking £200,000 for rubbish-strewn property

HOUSE-hunters have slammed an estate agent for asking £200,000 for a decrepit, rubbish-strewn property — labelling it a “rare opportunity”.

Photos of the filthy home show the kitchen has a collapsed ceiling and the loo has a “do not use” warning taped to it.

The living room of the three-bedroom detached in Nottingham has old newspapers, books and food wrappers stacked high against the walls.

The listing by Haart estate agents has ridiculed by house hunters, with one joking “wall of trash anyone?” while another added “definitely Wrongmove”.

One said: “I feel so much better about my own housekeeping now”.

Another said: “I find it annoying when the agents don’t even acknowledge the state of it.”

The agent’s description reads: “£200,000. A rare opportunity.

"This three-bedroom detached property is perfect for anyone looking for a project.”

It went on to add that the property “could be the perfect family home with three large bedrooms, a fantastic entrance hall, large kitchen and open plan living/dining room”.

According to RightMove the average price of a house in Nottingham is £255,000.
