You could buy 1/2 Grozny for that but it would be a long time investment.

you can in nottingham.mainly ex council houses.my house is a 3 bedroom and is quite big for a terraced house.we bought it for 32000 of the council and it is valued at 75000 now.
they are mainly in areas with a bad reputation but its not bad where i live(except for the day we had street riots lol),and the houses are great for first time buyers or for rental properties.

I think this link will work - http://www.halifaxhomefinder.co.uk/HxHfMatched.asp

and that was restricted to one city, only houses and at least 3 bedrooms.

Edit: I used to live in Nottingham that's why it was the first place that sprang to mind for property of that price to rent out to students, but there's plenty of places that it would apply as long as you avoided the south east

OK, I'd investigate the buy-to let market as well though...£75k in inner city non-regenerated provincial property and let it out

Possibly not in Poland

I think Poppet's idea is the best one, but if you used it as a deposit that would waste the amount needed to pay off the balance of the mortgage.

The better way would be to look somewhere where you could buy it outright. Using the first estate agent that sprang to mind (Halifax) and the first Town (Nottingham), I got 9 3 bedroomed properties for less than £70,000.

If you're not in the same town as the property you'd have to get an agent to manage the property for you, but I think this would be a good idea anyway as they are more likely to know what they're doing than an amateur.
 

I'm I reading this as you brought separate  9 Houses in Nottingham for £70k.

I'd buy some property near to DTD, and provide short-term lettings to poker players...

LOL - I knew it didn't sound right, I couldn't be bothered to change it so I just made the assumption people would work out that it meant in a search result.

your going about this property purchase in completely the wrong way!!

What you do is invest the money in a poker playing monkey then buy the property out of your percentage of the winnings, most poker playing monkeys are quite willing to undertake this agreement for a small percentage and a fixed quantity of fyffes!!

good Idea

You need to look at NG7 for Lenton.

With all the players coming to Notts.  Buy a Hotel aim it at the Poker Market, Shuttle service to the Poker club, Airport pick ups etc . cleaners work pm shifts. Cooked breakfasts starts at Midday.

i dont know - my two best cashes in the last 6 months have both come in the last 8 days.......

i think now that the worry that something will go wrong away from the table has been lifted there's no stopping this primate on the table thumbs up

(plus there wasn't much focus or discipline to start with anyway!!  )
