Here’s our Picture of the Week – and it has already caused quite a bit of excitement on the Twitter airwaves.
For it is no less than a listing for eMoov Towers although its headline description is as a “one bedroom flat”, on the market at a modest £123,456.
It has been on both Rightmove and the eMoov’s own website.
According to Rightmove, it was marketed from mid April to Wednesday this week.
What could it mean? That eMoov is bursting at the seams and is upsizing to somewhere roomier?
Relocating to fancy new offices in central London? Or maybe, like Purplebricks, off to Australia?
We felt we had to ask eMoov founder Russell Quirk, who explained: “It’s a test property for our engineers. Anyhow, the price has a few more zeros after it than that.”

3 points to make here:
1) Test property? Isn’t he misleading the market again if it isn’t actually for sale?
2) “Anyhow, the price has a few more zeros after it than that” – no it doesn’t I can see it on the screenshot, are they telling me my eyes are not working!!!
3) Plus why when it says on the screenshot that it has been marketed since 15th July why does the news story say that it was advertised since April. They aren’t even trying to hide that fact that they are just a bunch of …….. (finish this sentence yourself)
Surely it’s the true value of the business
Yeah… provided by Zoopla no doubt.
Expect a reduction. Or three.
Then it’ll go SSTC “at 99% of last advertised price”.
You couldn’t make it up.
Oh – hang on…
I note the fee price in the banner. Rightmoves terms are you can display your selling fees as long as it links to the terms and conditions in less than 1 link. I don’t believe this banner does.
so please eye. Investigate
There’s an over powering stench for sure, I don’t think it’s genuine Bill Shut, more like one of those market stall knock offs of something like Brut 33, the sort of thing a rude boy would wear to pick up a bit of rough at Goldmine on Canvey Island.
Now that would make a picture of the week!
Anyone got a spare keyboard they can lend me?
And a fresh pair of shreddies…
;o)
“…eMoov founder Russell Quirk, who explained: “It’s a test property for our engineers.”
Why would “a test property” find its way onto Rightmove?
More than once…
Why would it be displayed on their own website?
Anyone smell something awfully billshutty?
At last a realistic valuation estimate from a call centre agent!
