Currently live in a 2 bed flat with garden in an affluent area of greater Manchester\Cheshire. Very happy here, lovely school. But we did leave London to come here as we managed to get onto social housing and now have an assured tenancy.
We now have 3 children, and dhs friend in a big 3 bed house in a lovely village near Brighton want to do an exchange with us .He thinks this is amazing and wants to move there. I do not know the area at all! But he thinks it's amazing because we only just under a hour to London and in-laws and bigger space, etc. the tenancy is fixed term.
My eldest is in year 1 and very settled in school.
Do you think it would be better to move for the long term? As my husband thinks I'm crazy for not being excited about wanting to exchange as I've been complaining I miss London (well richmond) so much!
