    Cheeky Bricks Episode 14

    In this special episode, Jono, SJ and Richard present a glossary of key terms and phrases used by estate agents, solicitors and the broader property world. If you’ve ever wondered what a valuation, flying freehold, stock, open house or indemnity policy might be, this is the episode for you! Later, SJ’s Star Property selection allows us to dip our toes in the water, Richard’s West Country Wisdom takes us along the River Teign, and the team head to London for Property Porn. We hope you find these podcasts useful (and entertaining!). Contact us if you’d like to suggest another topic for a future episode, or if you’d like to send us a Property Porn brief: Email feedback@cheekybricks.co.uk Find us on Insta: @sj.chick.jacksonstops / @jonathancunliffecornwall LINKS: Star Property: SJ – Blanksmill Creek, Nr Salcombe - Harriet George West Country Wisdom - Favourite walk to a pub/cafe: Richard - https://visitdartmoor.co.uk/get-active/the-best-dartmoor-walks/teign-turrets-walk/          https://threecrowns-chagford.co.uk/eat/ https://millendhotel.com/ Home | Fingle Bridge Inn Pub for sale in Fingle Bridge Inn, Drewsteignton, Exeter, Devon, EX6 6PW Property Porn: The brief: Assuming property is still cyclical, then some would say it could well be a great time to invest in London.

You want a property where you can host most or all of them for Christmas and birthdays, but where there will be enough space for them not to start WW3. Although you were once very wealthy, the pot has been diminished somewhat so the budget is £2 million including stamp duty.

    Cheeky Bricks Episode 13

    Jono, SJ and Richard talk about stamp duty in an episode recorded the day after the UK welcomed a new PM to number 10. What changes would the team encourage Andy Burnham to make? What could replace it? Later, Richard’s Star Property selection is a castle, leading to a discussion about mottes and baileys – and SJ would like to apologise here for misinforming listeners because, as we all know, the motte is the mound and the bailey is the courtyard below - and Jono’s West Country Wisdom walk involves not one but two boat trips.
