Wait aren't those homes so cheap because there is a lot of legal stuff wrong with it, aka all of plumbing or codes that forces you to dig out 6 feet of dirt to remove some oil drum buried there?
And it still is economically interesting to them?
Or do building codes not apply to muds?
Yes, generally you'd have to gut them to get them up to the current Electrical 18th Edition code and to add insulation. The plumbing is just removing any lead pipes and installing a cheap boiler. They'll have a standard fit and finish so everything looks the same and they will know how to install everything

I don't know the current pricing but they would easily make £10-15K profit on each flip, and they take around 6-8 weeks to complete. It's finding the properties that is the problem
Muslims prefer the big houses that they can fit multiple families into, so they move into a lot of the period housing areas. Modern houses are too small for them.
Having multiple families moving in and out of addresses lets them run multiple benefit scams too
and to add insulation
They better or the insulation faggots will show up. (Who am I kidding those boomers and career college students would never dare step foot in a muds path.)

They have to run those? I thought all they need to do is fill in a form and they get their shit, no questions asked ever, its only whites who apply for something that need to prove they are not frauds.

insulation is a no brainer when you can install it, payback is 6 months to 3 years. A lot of UK housing stock is hard to retrofit though, like all the terraced housing is solid wall construction, and the rest are tiny detached shoe boxes built to min spec
The main reason that we can't retrofit heat pumps is that they only work on well insulated housing. The Government better get a clue and stop demanding that poor people go green first.
If we stopped importing niggers by the million then we could afford better housing
