we moved into our 2 bed flat in a lancashire village 5 years ago. we decided to put it on the market 3 years ago just as the property market went tits up. since then i have had 2 dd's and we are bulging. we realy want to move. i am too far away from family support, they are only in the next town but transport links are crap and i dont drive. i feel that every day is a struggle for space and feel guilty that we have no garden for the girls and the local park are rubbish.
after 3 long years we have had a veiwing today that went realy well. the couple are retired and are cash buyers. they are from the village and looking for a flat to live in for about a year and then to rent as they go to spain. they liked the flat and said that there only reservation was that the estate agent told them that another flat locally has beeter renting potential as it has better transport links and is nore central. they did say that they would rather live in our flats but had to think of long term renting. i reassured them by saying that most of these flats are rented and they are never vacant for more than a month. we did discuss money to an extent. they said that they wont offer full asking price and we said that we are not silly enough to expect that in the current market. it was left that the men exchanged numbers and he asked my oh to call on monday when we have checked our morgage and we are in a possition to dicuss offers.
i honestly dont think i can wait until then. i am trying not to get my hopes up but i cant help it. i am desperate to move. we cant drop too much but can knock 5% off the asking price.
PLEASE send me you positive vibes. i realy want this to happen.... thanks
