22.0 ' £1,000,000 per square metre ' ... I'm in Yes, we did notice that. Even Sandbanks isn't quite there yet... In context, it's clear that the valuer intended £1,000 per square metre, so we decided against asking for a full rewrite of the valuation.

This one is genuinely on Sandbanks (Bru*****l Rd is actually Canford Cliffs as it's on the mainland). Nicely located too, on a quiet cul-de-sac off the one-way gyratory, well away from the grockles and the ferry queue, mere steps away from Rick Stein's and with unimpeded views across the harbour. Not quite as glam as some of the sea-facing properties but much more private. One of the spots on Sandbanks I'd actually quite fancy living.

Looks a nice area, suppose I better start looking behind the sofa for tommorow.

In context, it's clear that the valuer intended £1,000 per square metre, so we decided against asking for a full rewrite of the valuation. It would have to be £1,000 per square foot to get to the £5,000,000 valuation for the completed house. Did he get the units wrong also?

We'll get the valuer to clarify exactly what he meant tomorrow.

We'll get the valuer to clarify exactly what he meant tomorrow. I must say, sadly, that this is very disappointing. You should not rely on us to do your DD and these 2 errors should really have been picked up before posting on the site.

The line we are talking about here was in the 'special requests and other information' section of the valuation. It's not a question of 2 errors but of one typo which can be interpreted in 2 ways, and we'll get a clear answer on which way is correct. There is no ambiguity about the valuation figure itself.

Since a sqM is almost exactly 10 sqft, I guess we can assume thy slipped the decimal place / comma by 2 places, rather than the whole 3.

It's actually 10.76 square feet, which may not seem much of a difference. However, if he did mean £10,000 per square metre, the house would only be valued at £4,647,000. It's more likely that he got his sq feet and sq metres mixed up.

We have now spoken to the valuer who has confirmed that he expects the value of the completed development to be around £1,000 per square foot. He's visiting a site at present but will be sending us an email later confirming this.

Looked like the site was going to crash there for a couple of minutes.
I didnt manage to refresh until 6.04 and by then I think over 70% was gone.

You can expect our mods to allow information gained through time travel ............ and how on earth does this forum time a post made eighteen minutes ago as 11:21:52 GMT?   That's what comes up when I click on "quote!" for zoll 's post. Or is that "Trump" time?
