Yes.

At no more than 1x clean value. Also if the prices are OK for you.

Just my opinion.

Have a look at the work and see if you want it.  if you do then 1 x value max.. if you dont then you have lost nothing.

Cheers

Andrew

I think the guy selling it is actually a member on this forum. He's been offered a new job or something which is to good to turn down which is why he is selling.

Hi Russ.
The prices could be a stumbling block for me as well as I have a £10 minimum on new work.  I live local to the seller and we have had discussion on the phone (not about the round selling) and he seems genuine enough.  He did ask me to quote for an extra job on one of his houses that he couldn't get to (I have WFP)  but when I looked, I decided that I wouldn't be able to do it either - so I believe that the work is genuine as I visited one of the jobs.  Speaking generally now, it's usually a good idea to visit the jobs to see if they are suitable.

its my last round that is for sale people - just so you all know

ive chatted to Russ today and we are going out on sunday. many thanks to all that posted on here for information on round selling and on me personally.

i think your advice to Russ to check over the round is sound - especially after talking to him and hearing his previous experiances of round selling!

i didnt formally list the round for sale on here as i knew some wouldnt want the houses sub £10

good luck to all

Regards

DC
