Yeah they bought their OG flat for £140k I think but this recent one in current market would definitely go for £240k at least being three beds with good features. Maybe when she got it before corona more like 200k…
Yes and the way the market is here in Scotland it’s the “offers over” scenario so they are going well over Home Report Value.
It’s a nightmare. I feel for those just starting out.Yeah I’m going through that hell now
I can't believe their old flat was £140k, it'll be worth so much more than that now
insane how much the prices have risen in the last few years, I think you're bang on with that estimation. I wonder where she gets her money from that she isn't even considering selling her old flat?Plus all the commission from affiliate links which probably adds up to a few thousand each month
Of course, yes, especially as she rarely says where something is from. A lot of people will click just to find out, not realising even if they buy something else from that brand up to 30 days later Kate will be getting a few per cent commission. A saw an influencer with far fewer followers showing how it all worked and some days she made £200 a day from affiliate links.
She’s always said her family isn’t “rich”, but then rich people don’t usually realise they are wealthy compared to 95% of others
I think you are spot on with her house price but think her Reno costs would have been much less than £40k. The items she has added in aren’t that high spec and the kitchen was a work around with what was there. Those green shelves are probably the biggest investment and even then I’d say pushing £1.5k including labour, as she did it before wood prices went through the roof.
Her dad was a pilot - they absolutely come from money.
Ah, right. I'm sure I've seen it mentioned on here that her dad owned a shipping company or worked in the oil industry - but maybe that was just speculation or maybe he has done all of those things!
No I don’t think this is true, did work in oil however.
I think Kate thinks she’s super down to earth because she’s from Glasgow not Edinburgh and from south side not the west end but she’d do well to acknowledge her privilege getting on the brutal housing ladder super young and having spare money for extensive renovations and essentially not working a proper day’s work in her life… meanwhile people in streets near her are exploited by slumlords and struggling to make ends meet. Even her husband’s coffee shop is only open 3 days a week. What a charmed life.
