How can we secure our dream home!

I'm a nervous wreck right now. We have been in rented for 12 months now, trying desperately to buy our forever family home. In that time barely anything has come on the market. Easter time a house came on, we were first through the door, offered asking price, and we still didn't get it 🙁 We are chain free cash buyers.

On Saturday estate agent phoned us, house coming on they thought we would love - we are booked in to see it a week on Friday. Yesterday it went on Right Move, I'm completely in love 🥰 Immediately phoned agent to see if we can see sooner, we can't - but are first in the door next week. I know it's going to have so much interest 😭 Do we offer asking price as soon as we have seen it? So tempting to offer right now 😂 Any other tips to help them pick us???!!!

This is going to be the longest week!!!

I missed the link too, had been watching this with interest but without posting! We recently moved into our forever home after it going into a bidding war too! If you have a moment please pm us the link? :)

Ooh well done @SaltySeaAir, that house is gorgeous (I saw your earlier link). Hoping some of your luck rubs off on me, so that my dream house comes to market in the next few weeks!
