Which would you choose?

Hey, Nice to meet you all!
Well we are looking to move and we have two properties we like, But we cannot decide between the two!
For a bit of fun I thought Id ask your opinion! So I will add two photos! We do not know when either of them were built so if anyone knows anything about the history of either type of building or when they think they were built this will be cool to hear too!
Im sorry one photo is rather small.
And thanks for reading!

The council house, obviously.

Berty

Whats that sam?

How are we supposed to know the history without something to go on?

Second house looks well better.

second one.

2nd

2nd for me too!

Who is "we"?

I used to live next door to the 2nd house!

I moved out after the murder though.

stovelid

If both houses are the same price, somebody was probably murdered or died of an overdose in the second house.

EDIT: Beaten to it

Cinnomen

haha funny funny...and moving on.....lol :eek: To all those who put answers that actually make sense thank you!

ayapatrick

definitely the 2nd one! as of age id say its the older of the two!

2nd house looks like it's in flats, so good chance the houses around it might also be.
1sr house looks much smaller unless there's a big extension to the back that can't be seen in the photo

Sharpshooter

We can obviously see the second one better, so of course people will say that one.
Why the side view of the first one,is it a narrow street or something?

2nd one is the better but it definitely needs some TLC. With a bit if work it has the potential to be a truly fabulous house!

Ruu_Old

Does the second one have hardwood floors? More details please, I'm a real estate hound!

Holsten

It also looks like a nicer house.

Sharpshooter

Any details would be welcome.
wait..
OP you aren't an estate agent I hope.

Number two, without a doubt.

But do get a surveyor in. I love period property, but it could go horribly wrong very quickly unless you do. Chances are the sale may have nothing untoward about it, but its an investment. Dont rush in.

But def 2

Saibh

Picture no 2 for the moment.

If you are able to show us the pictures, you could provide us with more information on the houses as well.

Move to whichever one is on the southside.

tony1kenobi

I think the second house looks like a homosexual. That might affect the sell on price in the future.

stovelid

Wait a few years and buy both.

Thanks guys, Im not sure why the 1st one is taken at the side, I took the second photo with my mobile but not the first someone else did.
I am yet to see the inside of the second one, I was told it will be refurbished before I move in (If I have it) and that a new gas boiler will be fitted and so on.
The second one is 3 bedrooms, the first is 2 bedrooms, both are the same rent.

Sharpshooter

You really need to see the inside of the second one.
The fact that you were told it needs refurbishment means you should also get your own surveyor.

Disease Ridden

Either the first house is full of bouncy castles and coca-cola slides or the second one smells like faeces on the inside!!

Like the universality of the concept of human beauty, the concept of what houses are more attractive looking is also universal for some reason. Same applies to cars.

Beauty IS NOT in the eye of the beholder, despite what all the ugly people might say.

The 1st one looks like a recent build, but could be Crumlin, Drimnagh, Finglas, ex-tenament relocation housing circa 1940's

the 2nd one looks like a house on South Circular Road, Dublin, or in behind Harolds Cross area, these are older but I couldn't give you a date. I would say possibly 20's.

While the electrics may not be up to scratch these houses have high ceilings and are solid built, if I was buying and had a bit of cash to do it up I'd go for number 2.

Think about refurb costs and garden size for a long term buy.

But you'd really have to give a bit more info before I'd pack my bags

Thanks I really liked this answer. I guess I will know more when I see inside the second one. For what I could work out from peeping in the windows lol, It has a big hall with stairs as you walk in, first one you walk right into the living room and there isnt a hall. The living room in property two is twice the size, outside the paint is falling off the wall but its double glazed and im sure some paint would fix it up. Number one is clean tidy and painted well, yet number two has character.
mmmm...tricky...ill let you know how the viewing goes!

Good, do.

I know plenty of people in Drimagh-esque houses who are really happy due to the garden size even though the houses are small enough themselves, but very neat. Those houses are very well built too, with the small size compensated by the garden usually.

Plus, you've only neighbours on one side.

The 20's style town houses are airy with high celings. Dependant on what work had been done to it and personally the size of the garden, (as I'm into garden's), it could be a good place.

bear in mind that if they are of the same offering price and one is closer to the city centre than the other, that one is sure to be more defective, because location counts when it comes to price!

Bring a builder with you, or a friend who is a master of all trades is my advice.
