#housing estates

[daisy-mooon]

This may be a British thing but we genuinely need to talk about these modern housing estates that pop up wherever there's a spare patch of land on the outskirts of a city or town. Every house is minimalist and flat. Each house looks quite big but they're constructed specifically so that two small houses basically joined into one with the doors on opposite sides so you don't notice anything. They all have garages and en suite bathrooms but the garage takes up a third of the house and the en suite is so small you can't use it. The walls and floors are THIN like you could genuinely punch through them. The outsides all come in the same shade of white mixed with 4 variations of brown (usually a pale brown to let you know that they're modern). The estates don't connect to the streets normally and you can only get through on one road, which usually connects to a very busy road which makes the traffic ten times worse. When i say that they spawn wherever theres a spare patch of space, which means WHEREVER theres a field or some trees of a bit of nature, I mean it. Not even five years ago I remember a fuckton of fields in my town and now they're fucking gone and replaced by stupid housing estates. They're fucking TERRIBLE and responsible for the deer and wildlife that used to regularly wander onto our school field to be spooked off. I'm not fucking joking we used to see deer 5 times a month on our school grounds and the moment they started building shitty housing estates around it they vanished. The fields that used to surround it are no longer there because of these stupid houses. Each house seems like a "starter home" except they cost the same as the average house and often more because of how "nice" they are. If anyone who invests and wants more of these shitty modern minimalistic UK housing estates I hope you fucking explode. Fuck you bitch stop ruining local wildlife for the shittiest quality housing ever.

I follow the lady who owns this home, on Instagram. She flat-out refused the realtor's advice to redo her colorful home in Richardson, TX, in white & gray, in order to sell it . She wrote: The hubs got a job opportunity in Austin that he couldn’t refuse…so I am being kidnapped and forced to sell my colorful pattern party dream house to one of you losers. (Don’t listen to me, I’m just bitter.) The 1976 home has 3bds, 2ba, & is listed for $469K. She was right, it's already under contract.

I notice that the real estate photos are so dulled down. The entrance is bright pink with flamingo wallpaper. It looks dull and beige.

I mean, really, this is the actual color of the entrance.

The photos have to be dulled down on purpose.

The blue in the living room is much brighter and I bet they made her take up the area rug.

The dining area has a great ceiling mural.

A nice arch includes the kitchen peninsula with a counter and seats.

The actual kitchen with a view of a pink room.

The kitchen's pretty big, even though it's a galley layout.

The top photo is dark and subdued. The real dining area is lively and bright.

Look at the color of the wallpaper.

What a difference.

The primary bedroom. Both the realty version and the actual room.

They even dulled down the bathroom.

The subdued deck and the real deck.

MY REGULAR WALK ALONG A SECTION OF DUNDRUM ROAD

Windy Arbour is surrounded by several housing estates, including Columbanus. At the centre of Windy Arbour is the smaller and much older townland of Farranboley, which appears on maps dating from the 18th century.

WINDY ARBOUR VILLAGE AND NEARBY I pass through Wind Arbour Village twice every Tuesday and Saturday. Windy Arbour is surrounded by several housing estates, including Columbanus. At the centre of Windy Arbour is the smaller and much older townland of Farranboley, which appears on maps dating from the 18th century. The name of the area was originally Irish Na Glasáin, “the green land”; this was…

BEIJING — China’s struggling real estate developers won’t be getting a major bailout, Chinese authorities have indicated, warning that those who “harm the interests of the masses” will be punished.

“For real estate companies that are seriously insolvent and have lost the ability to operate, those that must go bankrupt should go bankrupt, or be restructured, in accordance with the law and market principles,” Ni Hong, Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, said at a press conference Saturday.

“Those who commit acts that harm the interests of the masses will be resolutely investigated and punished in accordance with the law,” he said. “They will be made to pay the due price.”

That’s according to a CNBC translation of his Mandarin-language remarks published in an official transcript of the press conference, held alongside China’s annual parliamentary meetings.

Ni’s comments come as major real estate developers from Evergrande to Country Garden have defaulted on their debt, while plunging new home sales have put future business into question.

In 2020, Beijing cracked down on developers’ high reliance on debt for growth in an attempt to clamp down on property market speculation. But many developers soon ran out of money to finish building apartments, which are typically sold to homebuyers in China ahead of completion. Some buyers stopped paying their mortgages in a boycott.

Authorities have since announced measures to provide some developers with financing. But the national stance on reducing the role of real estate in the economy hasn’t changed.

This year’s annual government gathering has emphasized the country’s focus on investing in and building up high-end manufacturing capabilities. In contrast, the leadership has not mentioned the massive real estate sector as much.

Real estate barely came up during a press conference focused on the economy last week, while Ni was speaking during a meeting that focused on “people’s livelihoods.”

Ni said authorities would promote housing sales and the development of affordable housing, while emphasizing the need to consider the longer term.

Near-term changes in the property sector have a significant impact on China’s overall economy.

Real estate was once about 25% of China’s GDP, when including related sectors such as construction. UBS analysts estimated late last year that property now accounts for about 22% of the economy.

Last week, Premier Li Qiang said in his government work report that in the year ahead, China would “move faster to foster a new development model for real estate.”

“We will scale up the building and supply of government-subsidized housing and improve the basic systems for commodity housing to meet people’s essential need for a home to live in and their different demands for better housing,” an English-language version of the report said.

next time you complain about how things are in America, consider that if you lived in some kind of scary communist country like China, you wouldn't even get to fund a bailout for the real estate company owners who ruined the economy like you can (whether you like it or not) in the good old US of A! 🇺🇲
