I am so fed up with renting. We have 100K deposit from our old house sale. I have viwed every single house on rightmove dozens of times for 9 months now in the area we want to buy in and keep going back to the same house over and again. On the market for £250K. Needs new kitchen, bathrooms, drive, windows in a state etc. BUT it's in a cul de sac location (not many in my area, lots of houses on main roads) with families and small children; has a field behind protected from building work; not overlooked; nice garden; double garage - and basically ticks every box we have. Yes it needs work, but it's all fixable. Should we offer on it despite the fact house prices are going to drop etc etc etc!? Added complication is that we went to view yesterday and the woman is still in cuckoo land. Thinks her house is a bargain. I know she won't accept a low offer despite being desperate to sell.
Please help all!!!!
