You can’t blame agents for trying to get the highest possible price for their vendor’s property, but Purplebricks probably wins the prize for pushing the envelope the most.
A four bedroom terraced house in Aylesbury should be around the £375,000 mark according to most comparables, but let’s give it a try at …. £70m!
That asking price, on Rightmove, is a fair chunk more than the next highest priced property - a 12 bedroom townhouse in prime central London, coming in at £54.5m.
Perhaps Aylesbury has changed a lot during lockdown and now rivals PCL - or maybe it’s just a slip of the price fingers by the local property expert.
Either way, if you want to buy, check your budget first. The monthly mortgage repayments would be £280,000 and the automatic calculator suggests “lenders may expect more than a 10 per cent deposit at this time.”

Oops. Not really worth an article to be fair though. A bit subjective me thinks.
Gave me a laugh - need that, at their expense!
Slow news day or what?
Well, if you get paid to list and don’t care afterwards why not?
