I am not surprised apartments do not inspire own buyers. They attract tenants 6 months at a time. Not so good to take a loss.
It looks like the apartment was bought new in 2001, and well overpriced for the time. But hey, it is an apartment in a big city centre. Easy to overprice it. Just look at London.
Later it was either repossessed in 2006, or used in some tax avoidance scheme. 2006 had property prices sky rocketing. We would see huge losses like that in 2008/09, but not in 2006.
Now everyday that passes worth less because of the leasing. I bet original leasing was 100 years and freeholder is charging a lot to renew now. Banks don't like to do mortgages for short leases... so the value goes down the drain.
