Tyipical.
Bet her family has a Nissan estate car and drive around with 8 or more people in it.
Going to have to sell a lot in the corner shop to make up for all that overspend.

Understatement of the year
Sheer stupidity from start to finish

what is it with idiots doing large mods without getting planning permission? this is the second or third episode where people "chance their arm". hope the councils crack down on jokers like this.

The end result of her "modifications" resulted in a house that looked like it had bits bolted on randomly. It amazes me she got planning permission.
I had to laugh when every time Beeny suggested something to her, she agreed it was a good idea and then went and did her own thing anyway!

"the best room in the house is the one she hasn't touched - the kitchen; it's light, airy and..." etc etc
nice

These muppets crack me up, did you see last week ? couple decided they were going to be developers, ended up with 7K profit for 4 months work between two of them !
Best part is when these people always think 'their' house is going to get £50K over all the others in the street because they've put a fancy bathroom in and some laminate flooring.
Have to say the woman last night was off her head though - took a reasonable house and lashed it up so it'll be worth FA when she sells it - used to have lots of nice big rooms, now has hundreds of tiny ones - typical scumbag landlord though, cram as many people as possible into one house, even if it means the rooms are so small you cant actually open the cupboard because the bed is in the way ( anyone else notice that ;0) ?

worth 10k more than her investment. Makes you wonder if she had a sensible extension and didn't spend a stupid amount, I.e. 83k to builds for a 2 bed extension! She'd have made a good 50k. Right house, right location, right moron = no profit

Double bed crammed diagonally into a room that would barely take a single bed
Still can't get over the 'two bedrooms in the garden shed bit'... class

This episode was hilarious, but good to see the programme putting the message across that being a "property developer" is not an easy or straightforward job in a difficult housing market.
About time somebody put across that not everybody can make a lot of money in a short space of time with no practical skills, business sense or common sense. Woman totally off her head, but like a lot of people these days thought that property developing was "easy money".
What next week, man buys bungalow and digs underneath it to form a new cellar? Husband and wife thinks that laminate floor in a shed puts 20K on to the price?

This will make you cry - one of my mates bought a 1920's semi earlier this year - just told me he spent a week ripping up the original parquet flooring ( which was under the carpet ) and has covered the floor with chipboard and B&Q £9.99 laminate.
