Can't decide on this - need help!
We rent our house, but it has no garden and the office is now too small (we run a company from home). We've found a house - also rented - which has a garden etc, but I'm not sure I can face a move to another rented house: really wanted to buy one next. Here's the details:
positives:
garden & pool
space in basement for bigger office
central heating
some good friends live 2 doors down
handy for shops (they're not the same shops as we go to now though)
nice living room.
bigger kitchen
negatives:
garden needs completely re-turfing
no air con
smaller
more stairs to worry about (ds and dd are 1 and 2)
possible issue with gtting tv (wrong aspect for sattelite
basement needs several stud walls to make office useable
will need to buy lots of shelves.
I really can't decide. Houses like this don't come up for rent round here very often, but I can't help thinking that its worth holding out for something better. OTOH I would love a garden for the summer, and it would be nice to be near friends (current neighbours are quite stand-offish.)dh wants to move and we won't be able to buy for at least a year.
don't know!
