Blimey! Sounds like you got a cracking deal, there, Stan!
At those prices, that is not a deal to be sniffed at.

Good on you, Stan. You might actually become the first estate agent in history to actually put his balls on the line and do a bit of development that he doesn't completely and utterly **** up.
Now, if you don't mind, I have to study the terms that have come in, this evening, from the financier. I'll be gone for a little while, lads.

You've been found out, mate. Admit it.
£200 psf! **** me! Either you know some right cowboys, or you are the biggest mug on the Manc estate agency scene! Either suits me, to be honest.
Was reading this thread at lunchtime today and showed it to a guy that is working with me at the moment. This guy is a chartered civil engineer for a large company called Jacob's ( I'll let you google their credentials). He said to me that build costs of £1k / square metre are not unusual especially in large cities. Even with my basic grasp of maths that is around £300 / square foot, which is what Stan has indicated. I know who I choose to believe!!
It's odd that a man of your immense wealth is bending over to a financier on such a small project that you could clearly fund with your loose change.
Go.

Well, I have looked at the finance offer that we've received today, and provided the valuation stacks up, we're in business.
I would add, not that I have to, that my business partner has done several of these pub conversions over the past 20 years, one of them in the same road as the current one, in fact, not that long ago. He's also converted a couple of other commercial buildings to residential within the same vicinity. He knows his stuff, for which he has been highly commended in the past.
I don't know what planet the rest of your so-called "experts" live on, but I'm certainly glad I'm not in business with them!
By the way, Pieguts, our various schedules have been vetted by a very experienced QS in a National firm, and he has given them the thumbs up. He'll probably get the job of monitoring surveyor on the project, as he will definitely be on the lender's panel. The lender, itself, is very experienced in lending on construction projects, and their credit committee has offered us terms in principle, which they would not have done if our figures didn't stack up. I don't know who your "chartered civil engineer" mate is, but he clearly knows nothing about the type of project that we are building out. Either that, or he is thinking about a completely different type of project and factoring in costs and charges that simply will not apply to our project.
We're going to hold off accepting the terms that have been offered (we have 14 days from today to decide), since there is another financier interested in offering terms. We could have a little "beauty parade" on our hands, which might give us some lee-way, if the valuation comes in slightly under what we need it at.
So just to recap, we have: Lawyer, Rock God, professional referee, Cambridge graduate, Harvard lecturer, Pussy magnet, Country gentleman, Mansion owner, property developer, forum wit on the list of HIAG's bullshit claims.
Have I missed any ?

Who said that I'm not putting anything into the pot? You make the most banal assumptions, Stan. It really is quite desperate and pathetic.
Also, you have absolutely no idea how my "wealth" is held, or on what it may or may not be tied up.
Neither do you know what other deals I am currently working on - and there are others. It's just that this one has come to the boil.
Calm down HIAG. I'm only winding you up.
I know that there isn't a project and that you don't have a pot to piss in.

Cambridge graduate - yes
Harvard lecturer - no
pussy magnet - I'm married
country gentleman - I live in the country and I am a gentleman
mansion owner - no

forum wit - the best out there by a long chalk

Whatever rocks your boat, Pixie.
By the way, nicely mugged "like" out of Stan, there, mate. You should be able to milk him for a few, because he's desperate for some muppet to lend him a shoulder to lean on, as he's been taking a right old humping off me, today.

Do you keep a little logbook of the "likes" on this forum? You seem to spend a lot of your very busy, successful and full life commenting on who's "liked" who.

I spend most of my day on the computer, Stan. It takes me two minutes to read Pixie's hilariously desperate wums. It cheers me up. It's hardly taxing stuff, to be fair.
Mate, your 'like' meltdowns are just another indication of how insecure you are. As for the rest of this thread, you've been thoroughly rinsed, spun and hung out to dry. Everybody can see it, the fact that you keep coming back to touch the electric fence is just pitiful really.

What the hell do you know about anything, Pixie! You're like the chimp trying to pick the fleas off the bigger chimp's balls, not quite sure if the bigger chimp is actually going to be able to protect you when the lions turn up to bite your ass. It's hilarious stuff, mate! I've got to give you that much.
This is an example of HIAG's tactic when he's been done. Say the exact opposite and hope it sticks. Trouble is people have already read the complete pasting he's taken.

I know more about property law and contractual law than you and I'm not even a Lawyer
