Property Ladder S06E02

[@MrsEJV]

Is anyone else binge watching this in 2021? I’m addicted! .

[@yvonnepalmquist8676]

I just discovered it last week and I can't stop watching.

[@tammy14441]

Me, too. I was watching other shows she is on as well. All of them should listen to her. I know I would if I were so fortunate;)

[@shastac1396]

Yes! I’m even re-watching episodes I’ve already seen, out of desperation😂

[@karinscheepers3346]

Yes, me too!

[@jonathanw844]

Totally, I looked a few years back to find none..

[@kehindeemiabata4032]

Mark comes across as defensive , angry and arrogant. His poor girlfriend.

[@taffythegreat1986]

Mark’s talking about luxury flats. The area looks a bit of a shit hole area.

[@abigail1023]

Nice to watch someone like Sarah who deals in reality and not fantasy and pipe dreams, even though no one listens to her. Mark the Twit would have been better to build nice, but basic, affordable flats with a much wider range of buyers and sell them quickly instead of "luxury" ones in an area that doesn't really look luxurious. Tearing down that side building was insanity.

[@wilmacguzman4405]

Starting to notice - Sarah is realistic and uses examples from other developments and local research to illustrate her points. The point is many male clients don't like to take advise from women.

[@ginacrusco234]

Yes, that's the conclusion I've reached as well. Remarkable that so few comment on it.

[@rebeccamace1534]

It really annoys me when they don't listen to Sarah! most people would give their right arm to have someone with Sarah's experience guiding them.

[@juliandodwell8213]

Sarah has very think skin to tolerate their almost aggressive rebuttals

[@pyewackett5]

She knows she'll get the last chuckle & it is other people's money at the end of the day

[@abdasadiq7639]

Iv a always loved property ladder and Sarah so it’s great to watch the shows again x

[@SuzanneU]

Had Mark and Kate listened to Sarah, they'd have been done long ago. The party wall problem and the live gas line problem would never have arisen.

[@jumpstart5350]

I agree! Better to spend 3k for the project manager than have the whole project sink! He was being very arrogant in refusing sound advice.

[@dorothydonahue4604]

I just discovered this series and am seriously addicted. It is really cutting into my rehab work as it is impossible to get any work done while glued to my laptop. And worse yet my sleep schedule is terribly disrupted.

[@cheechalker8430]

Is it wrong to be secretly pleased when Sarah’s advice is ignored and she is proven correct at the end of the day?

[@li-anderker55]

Not at all. Mark's arrogance needed a serious schooling.

[@CovidConQuitTheCensorship]

Hangs head in shame 😳

[@c.t5136]

no :-)

[@c.t5136]

Well done to the Clevedon planners. I really dislike arrogant and disrespectful builders, especially those who have planners in their pockets. Impressed with Clevedon!

[@svietka202]

mark is a pompous fool and the mess is well deserved. I think the reason the guys didnt do open plan was because of ego, which is a shame.

[@jwouldgo2531]

Sarah is savvy & sexy all in one. why would any1 not listen to every word and follow her advice to save $ and hit the target market expectations is beyond me!

[@renee176]

Why don't these people ever listen to Sarah, she does know what she's talking about!

[@Puzzledrev]

Because they're egotistic idiots.

[@renee176]

Puzzledrev 😄😄😄👍

[@happydays1336]

Maybe because they want to be told everything is phenomenal and that they're geniuses instead of "What you're planning on doing isn't a good idea and won't make a profit." In other words, "egotistical," as Puzzledev wrote.

[@taffythegreat1986]

I think it's more that they're set in their ways how they want their project to look like rather than divert from it. You would also think, as a business venture, they would listen to her. She's got to gloat if it goes tits up after they didn't listen, I know I would

[@cateliper3588]

Oh, now, where's the fun in that?? ; )

[@jadefalconUSA]

"massage parlor" yeah.... right lol

[@dalefahey2202]

Mark is a control freak and Sarah was wasting her breath with him

[@jonathanbennetts2632]

Ignore the Bean at your peril.

[@ginacrusco234]

Mark and Kate were plagued with bad luck. Yes, they could have been spared delays over the shared wall and the gas line had they opted not to knock down the building, but it could have gone the other way too. I think the takeaway is not to gamble with someone else's money. If it's your own money, you're going to work your butt off to succeed.

[@jonasmichaelmoir9378]

Why won't people listen to specialists? Amazing stupidity???)))

[@jrnaki903]

Another no it all ...Sarah should let him do it his way so his ego slaps him in the face ...

[@taffythegreat1986]

I thought with mark and Kate’s project. There would be a parking issue

[@BT-sharky]

Thank you so much

[@SmallWonda]

I wonder if Sarah ever followed-up on the Northampton project - I wonder what the investor thought? It really was a hideous building - before & looked even worse when Mark had his way with it - I can't fathom why these people are so arrogant and intransigent - I feel rather sordid watching these shows!!

[@AndreasTabuMuntu]

Karma is a real bitch isn't it?! LMAO Dude's ego went all the way up to the heavens after purchasing a property, even God couldn't tell him to wipe a stain off his goggles. He was quick to reject any and all the suggestions Sarah gave them. And see what happened?! ***Spoiler Alert*** A project that was supposed to last a couple months, ended up taking 2+ years (and they gave up at the end aka went completely broke) because he thought he knew it all, and made a fool out of himself at every single curveball. Oh the shame of it all!!! And the ultimate loser award goes to...tada LMAO My heart goes out to his wife cause at least she seemed like she had a good head on her shoulders. His biggest downfall was by refusing to hire the professional project managers. He thought 3000 pounds/month to project manage their shoeboxes of apartment was too much. Well please tell us how much money you lost and how far deep in debt are you now sir?! Sheesh

[@JA-xz4vr]

listen to SARAH

[@thegroovychick7892]

That was some interesting before decor! Lol 😂

[@MrsEJV]

I do hope they saved the massage parlor carpeting. It was rather amazing! 😨

[@jadefalconUSA]

@@MrsEJV haha you DONT want that carpet... full of body fluids. honestly. what legitimate message parlor had decor or a setup like that?

[@Juliukas101]

@@jadefalconUSA I know! It looks really quite awful and seedy!

[@thegamblingzone-ql1vj]

mark is a muppet, proper know it all, glad it went wrong pmsl

[@shastac1396]

😫Mark is delightful 😖

[@puffypuff9779]

Great a converted knocking shop !

[@jadefalconUSA]

lol

[@jadefalconUSA]

glad you caught that

[@adriyk]

Sometimes I wonder if the real estate agents that come in at the end to provide evaluations are paid actors. They always seem to rehash the points made by Sarah when advising the developers.

[@emmatessier600]

I think it's more likely they say all sorts of random things and the producers pick out all the bits for the show that matched sarah's advice

[@SuzanneU]

It might be that Sarah actually knows what she's talking about! Having been in property development, very successfully, for many years, her experience and market research might just point up market factors that any good agent would bear in mind when valuing a property.

[@MrsEJV]

I believe all the agents are also part time funeral directors.

[@alexandrakennedy6568]

Mark has got such a bad attitude, it's cringe worthy.. 😕

[@Norfolk250]

15,000£ for ‘four luxury kitchens and bathrooms’ ?!?!!!!!? Do they define ‘luxury’ only as a word? Will they have it scrawled across the room like those who hang ‘believe’ on theirs? +++ Update: at around the 38 minute mark, I learned the difference betwixt what this country defines as ‘luxury’ is a far cry from here in southern Ontario. It’s bog standard to have a box of a room dressed solely in Sheetrock - no way is that luxury. I’m glad I am not scheduled to move there any time in my future! **** alright, rant over. I’m going out for a gorgeous autumn evening walk. Bye!

[@CovidConQuitTheCensorship]

lol

[@Pat2296]

My jaw dropped! I wish construction was that cheap around here. I had one, very non-luxury bathroom renovation recently and it cost me 13,000$ CDN and I kept my old tub. Mark is such a delusional and arrogant tosser he deserved what he got. The other two guys did a heck of a good job.

[@sarahdaw6648]

Mark is an arrogant prat!

[@cx24x]

The first guy is so stuck up.

[@HelenaLubkowski]

luxury flats, what planet was he on? 🤣

[@6fenfen]

Why does Sarah say "sheddule" and "issu"? Never heard people saying it like that

[@anonnymous4684]

That's the correct pronunciation.

[@jomariedavis8840]

It is considered “the kings English,” or “the queen’s English,” as the case may be. Not American English.

[@JohannTaljaard]

people that think they are posh pronounce like that.

[@Juliukas101]

LOL @ the plan to turn that seedy old 80s brothel into "luxury" flats. There is nothing nice or luxurious about that area at all, it is riven with crimes of all sorts and is as rough as hell!

[@fabiamaranoronha1136]

sou do brasil que dublado

[@inesolujic2534]

They keep using the word "luxury" but I saw nothing remotely luxurious...I have been watching Sarah's other show, Double The House for Half The Money (or something along those words), and those amateur home owners building extensions to their existing homes have sometimes done truly amazing things with truly luxurious results with sometimes stunningly small budgets. These apartment conversions were nothing that I'd view as anything close to luxurious....

[@dangerislander]

maybe this is casue this was filmed during the mid-2000s and that was the style back then? lol

[@inesolujic2534]

@@dangerislander nope. The other show I mentioned is from around the same time period. Plus, I was alive and well during that time period (and an adult) and can confirm - that style was not luxury back then nor is it now

[@dangerislander]

@@inesolujic2534 okay well congratulations for being alive back then.
