My husband and I are finally in a position to buy a house (yay!) and have our deposit and mortgage in principle all ready to go but we can't find anywhere to buy! In all fairness we've only been looking for just over a month but there seems to be a distinct lack of supply where we live (Milton Keynes). It's not as if we're being fussy or have a low budget-there's just no houses out there. The estate agents websites have lots of listings but every one has 'sold' or 'under offer' written on it. I'm listed with practically every agent and property website and nothing comes up or if it does then by the time I call, usually within minutes of it appearing on rightmove, it's already been sold! My husband thinks it's just a winter slump and things will pick up in spring but I'm beginning to worry we'll never find anything. Is this just how the property market is now or am I worrying for nothing?? Any advice greatly appreciated.
