Opinions on this.....(Not to live in, to do up and sell)

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/viewdetails-15303632.rsp?pa_n=1&tr_t=buy

Pros:
- Very near mainline station
- Not too bad a price for the area
- Decent-ish sized rooms

Cons:
- What a dump

What I would do:
- Gas central heating
- Decorate all rooms, neutral colours etc.....
- New bathroom/kitchen
- Sort garden

Is it a 1bed ground floor flat?

What do they normally go for around that area?

imo once you have spent money on doing it up and fees etc you won't make much money.
Take a look at http://www.houseprices.co.uk/e.php?q=Morval+Close%2C+Farnborough&n=10

The last flat to sell was in March for £129k. If I was looking to buy a place to do up and sell I would look in a completely different area where house prices are lower but increasing
