Rich Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 I've just done an advert for a house in Middlesex and when I saw the lounge photo I thought what's that next to the TV, it looks like another smaller one. So I zoomed in and it's a CCTV TV/monitor, the house has 16 cameras!! It's worth £1.2m but come on, do you really need that many unless you're a gangster or something. It must be distracting watching the TV aswell! Just seen a bedroom photo!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parthiban Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 That's pretty crazy! Not the best advert to move there is it! How do you know there are 16 cameras? Can only see 9 on the screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only see 9 on the screen? No it's not and it's only a semi detached in a normal road in Kingsbury - why all the security! It says in the specs front privacy glass full 16 camera CCTV system throughout 2 X professional alarm system full covering security lighting front, side & rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parthiban Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 2 words for you... Drug dealers That is where all the signs are pointing......... The door, windows and frames are all black - stands out next to the other ones that are white! Does that mean they're black on the outside and white on the inside?

Rich Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Yes black on the outside and white inside, it looks so dodgy! Put this in Google and it should be the second Zoopla link - Coniston Gardens, Kingsbury NW9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Yeah but it comes with your front door kicked in twice a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parthiban Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Yeah but it comes with your front door kicked in twice a week With all that security I'm assuming the front door is armoured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted November 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 I'm surprised it doesn't have a safe room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 It may have, the "front basement level walkways, locked access" seemed strange as well. No shots of external doors from inside and seems like, maybe blackout, roller blinds on front windows. If it was my house I would not declare that much security details in a for sale advert. Naive?

parthiban Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Having security features is probably ok, but those screens dotted around the house showing multiple cameras makes it look really dodgy. And the price is even worse - money laundering maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Could be...... Not a way to live your life though is it, forever looking if your going to get mugged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the price is even worse - money laundering maybe? I did wonder that, I bet it sells for cash! I would not buy that house, even if you removed all the cameras and screens you're still going to wonder why they were all there in the first place!

Rich Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 It's still for sale - it must be the only property I've seen up for sale in this area for this amount of time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
