So, 3.5 years ago we moved. I wrote about it on here. It was hard.
Wed moved from what was my family home( which had been built by late DF) so lots of emotions, we'd moved to a completely different house style and size. Think one-storey open plan to 4 storey victorian. I didnt handle it well! At all!
Ive grown to love this house, not as much as the one we left and i wouldnt buy it again given the choice but we have made it into a beautiful home. This week we went SSTC and much of the feedback was very positive about how the house looks and feels now. But were sold and we are both really happy about that.
We didnt physically look at any properties before we sold though i was on Rightmove daily. so i know that properties at the right price move fast round here. Theres not much being added round now. We've looked at half a dozen properties, 2 of which are new builds. None of them were right for whatever reason. One of the new builds is an interesting proposition, its a small local developer with a good reputation.
I really liked it, liked room sizes and layout and location is pretty good. DH went off for it a bit as there was something he was concerned about but this is no longer an issue.
He wants to reserve it now, but i cant decide. im terrified that we will make the same mistake again. Im scared that we'll buy it and regret it. Im scared to buy off plan, what if it doesn't feel good?
He says that im thinking too much about what else might come up for sale ...he might be right!
I like it...but do i like it enough?
How do i know?
