lol thanks girls - we are seeing it again tomorrow.
DH and i drove past tonight and sat for a while.
At 630pm in 10 mins only 6 cars drove past. so that is promising.
Brontide. the 3 bed house is in the same area. i am doing a comparison of a newer nicer 3 bed for the same price of this house which needs TLC it isnt a bad area. Actually a nice area,
As for the road. keep in mind the population of this town is about 11000 lol. so wouldnt be an issue of getting out in the traffic as such. but i understand what you mean .
i am actually excited about renovating... weird actually - every day is kinda like groundhog day - the thought of having a project is exciting for me! lol. I love painting houses. i almost took an apprenticeship a few years back ! hehe. people think i am weird but i find it extremely relaxing and therapeutic painting large spaces ,,,,, mmmm sounds like a dork now.
Anyhow DH and i are going to sit down and work out $$ tonight so we are all prepared.
Our next issue would be getting a long settlement so we arent paying too much double up (as we are in lease until dec
When we were looking at our current house DH and I were concerned that the road would be too busy. We drove by at different times during the day and night to see what the traffic was like. It paid off.
If the floorplan is good, I'd go for it - if you have a good idea of what you'd want to do to the kitchen/bathroom and how much it would cost (realistically).
Well update.
We went a had a better longer look.
We decided the layout and design of the house is fab!
but would have too much work for the price they want...
and i couldnt convince DH on the road.
I see his point though. He said : wouldnt you rather a street your kids can ride their bikes in.
PP - No I know but I try and make sure I pay for postage there, as they record the details on the receipt. I'm guessing you must have used stamps then?
it isnt a bad area. Actually a nice area,
