Found a house I love but only up for rent!! Not or sale WWYD?

[MadameCastafiore]

Should I phone the rental agent and ask if the vendor would consider selling?? Think would be at the top of our budget but I really like ie!

Here Sorry!!

OOOoooo that's nice. Why not make the call? What harm could it do. If nothing else you get a big fat no and you can park in your fantasy corner instead of chewing yourself up about it. :)

Worth making them an offer, do you have an idea of what it's worth though?

I would go round it and see if I liked it before going for it getting too excited.

It is a lovely house..

I expect they are moving temporarily, hence the rent rather than sell.

Go and look around... if you still like it as much as you think, why not ask if they would consider selling? What have you got to lose?

(lovely looking house, btw).

It said for sale when I looked...

This is for sale and lovely. Not 4-beds, either: 4/5 plus 2-bed barn conversion as well.

Says 720k on zoopla which we could just about stretch to. Is deffo not for sale. Will ring tomMorow and see what they have to say!

The other one with the barn conversion thing isn't really to my taste auntie!

How contrary, Madame.

Really? You like all that wood? Can you imagine dusting it - would be covered in yellow fluff from the duster.

That's a very fulsome description, you don't usually get so much detail on a rental. I think it may have been for sale, but not sold. Can't hurt to ask.

I do actually, though not so keen on the brick.

Cleaning would be a nuisance, though, I'll give you that; it would just have to be dusty. :-)

It says property for sale or to rent. So it is on the market

Where does it say that (for sale I mean?) - I love the style of the house and would be a great move asw would mean that our outgoings in terms of time/travel etc stay the same!

It is a lovely house OP, call them, you know you want to!

I think I will ring.

Still can't find where it says is for sale or rent though!

It is under the 'rent' tab - its rent. Maybe nicknacks just got confused with all the 00000's

Poop - was hoping I had just missed the fact that it was for sale!

It's a beautiful house - I hope they are willing to sell it. I also thought that the description was too detailed for a rental property and it may have been up for sale previously.

Good luck.

You never get that much detail with a rental property and if you google the road name it comes up on rightmove and primelocation as for sale but the listings have been removed. An enquiry can't hurt, good luck!

Can someone please post link for me am googling like mad but can't get it!
