Not sure what you mean by toppy but lots of footballers in the prem around London who could afford that sadly.
If they are late 20'/early 30's

Nah. Best part of 20m is a huge amount of cash. If anyone it'll have to be John Terry or someone like that at Chelsea.
Dennis is selling his stake in mclaren too so I put 2+2=5 probably.

Marshalls Park has always been a bit posh for Romford.
Nowhere near as good as Nelmes Way in Hornchurch - proper footballer territory that. All your Wist Hem lads had a gaff there. Used to delivers newspapers to that Geoff Hurst chap. Won the World Cup he did.

Will they not get a mortgage rather than paying cash?

Well yeah but if I was a bank I wouldn't lend some African 19 year old best part of 20mill
Imagine the club or some part of it would guarantee.

I'd tell the player to piss off. Already paying the bugger 100 grand a week.
I would have thought it'd be part of the package to start with.

I'm still going with my original line. Footballers don't own 20 million pound houses.

True, Robbie fowler probably owns properties worth more than that. I had a thing pop up on my Facebook where he's doing seminars.

Iff Epps had just posted the pics without the link and asked whereabouts in the UK we thought this house was having been to Hollywoods back in the 80s I would've opted for Essex with Romford top of the list. May of done well on the dance music scene?. If you know what I mean.f***ing hell
It's like how much more Essex can it be?
The answer is none. None more Essex.
Or be a builder because a lot of that stuff hidden telly sin ceilings or at the foot of a bed etc gets ripped out of high end properties around Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Belgravia etc and gets reused by the lads. Mates rates or favours to fit it.
Summit like 50% of the places I've worked on ower the last ten years have pools in the basements and most aren't even that size in houses that sell for £50m!
No. That's the sort of place I've been working in for 30 years.
Not many Brits living round there who haven't been there for decades now. It's all hedge fund types and middle eastern money scared of Arab Springs kicking off again and the top ten richest people from various countries around the world where things sometimes turn unstable, Greeces Euro troubles brought a flood or em ower.
Nice area with only one draw back. There's always massive refurbishments going on in the house next door or ower the road or out the back.......and these refurbishments last for a year or two. Then the house is sold and the new owner decides there's a few things they don't like and the whole process starts again.
The 90s have just been on the phone wondering when you're gonna move on?
Not at the high end it isn't. There's no shortage of rich people who may need to leave the country of their birth for a more stable environment where they don't ask too many questions.
Awful mobile reception about ten years ago around there. The queen owns vast stretches of land and wouldn't put masts up. Billionaires and builders nuts wandering around their gardens and out into the streets trying to get reception! All those houses have private masts on the roof now! The queen may of relented a bit now.
They can afford it but most are too thick to realise it's a better investment than bling n cars n holidays n big bottles of champagne n tattoos n clothes.
Oooooh one mentioned has had a few mortgages on his house........

True. Most will rent I suppose. There are a few houses round near us that go for £20k pcm.
Brad friedel used to rent my mates house for 9k a month with spurs paying half
I was talking at a mate last night and he mentioned a huge house called Theydon Towers that Harry Kane looked at buying and he struggled to get the finance together. It's an 8 million quid house

Loads of footballers on 100k a week nowadays. If you look at the bonuses the big clubs pay out most will be on 30k or so more a week on those. Signing on fee every time they move or extend. Probably nearer 150k a week with that and incentives.
Then add on your sponsorship or endorsements.
Be a few dozen of players who are earning 40-50 million in 5 years who could afford that.

Don't know who you are talking about but I think I know the house. White house 1st one on the left when coming from bournmoor? Didn't Phil Gray used to live there?Nelly (the one we know, not the shit rapper) had a 5 bedroom house with an indoor swimming pool - in Fencehouses
No they are not..100k a week is 5 million a year.
They are left with half that after agents fees, tax etc.
So say with some endorsements left with 3 million.
It would take them 5 to 6 years earnings to afford a place like that and that's not counting having to live.
I know a few footballers houses around my way and they are in the million to 3 million bracket.
Probably only half a dozen players who have the capital to buy something 15 million plus.

Last time I posted this story it crashed the thread.
A certain manager of ours who supriseingly got us to wembley was refused a mortgage because the lender was realistic enough to know the big bucks would be shorterm. It turned out to be correct, my mother was part of the lawyers who tried to help him.
