Hi everyone, I'm in the lucky position of being able to buy my first starter home. Im under 30 and single and I'm currently living in a nice area close to shops, parks and brilliant transport links. I really like the area a lot, it's one of my favourite areas in the city.
Anyway I'm keen to get on and buy a flat this year. I only started looking 2 weeks ago and so far I've gathered;
- some 2 bed flats/houses are available, but they arent generally in the areas I would want to live in. I would never have chosen to rent in those areas although I have friends that love them.
- the only flats in my price range in the areas I like are 1 bed. I have seen one in my price range but I know it isn't suitable because I used to live in the next street and never felt safe at night.
Ideally I would prefer 2 bed because I can have guests, it can double up as a room for my hobby and whatever else.
I am considering going to view a spacious looking 1 bed in the next street this week but am also wondering if I should wait it out until lockdown eases and more becomes available?
What does everyone think?
