thats for a terraced house even though i think its a rip off a friend of mine got a quote on there house recently and i was shocked and wouldnt pay half of what they was quoted for it but i know what you mean by cheap compared to other areas my brother bought a brand new house in cherry tree he only lived there a year before moving to essex his new house cost nearly 3 times as much and isnt anywhere near as nice as the last one .Even though its a higher standard of living down there a lot of the wages dont match costs and dont know how people manage to ever buy a house down there or do they all rent .I remember being in the kingston / croyden area about 10 years ago and rent down there was still higher than it is round here now but the properties where a lot nicer
