Property Snakes and Ladders

Shoreditch

Merchant banker, Tallat Mukhtar sank his life savings into an empty shell in Shoreditch, East London. His plan was to transform it into a trendy two-bed loft apartment. Tallat had absolutely no experience, yet he took on the roll of builder, architect and project manager. He planned to spend three months fitting it out and then sell it on for a massive £100,000 profit.
