wiggyrichard Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Just picked up my new house keys. Feel all giddy and shit. Good work dude!!! My turn in about 3/4 weeks time! You got much to do to the new pad Gaz or is it pretty much ready to just move in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Needs a complete redecorating/modernisation, but there's nowt stopping us from moving straight in. Will be packing up this week, moving most of the stuff over next weekend then spending the next two weeks touching up our old flat before handing it back to the estate agents (cosmetic stuff, just wanna make sure we get as much of that security deposit back as possible). The only things we want to do with the bungalow straight away is get the fuse-box up to current standards and maybe reinforce and plaster some of the interior walls (they're timber frame with aluminium cladding so they're very thin). Everything else will be as and when we get the time/money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a good electrican if you need one mate? 8) I wouldnt mind starting again with a house and doing it from top to bottom, it would just be hard with the little dude at the moment. The place we have brought, we have payed £1k less than they payed for it 2 years ago, and in those 2 years they knocked the kitchen through to form a big open plan kitchen/dining room and installed a brand new kitchen, consevatory on the back and complete new bathroom. From what i can gather, they had an unexpected 3rd child and needed a 4 bed house. So while we have payed more than we were going to, we have had roughly £10k's worth of stuff done to it for nothing. Nothing to do, just move straight in. Result!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've nae bairn to worry about, so the second bedroom is gonna be a den/football shrine/games room and the third a gym. We've got a sparky sorted, so happy days.

Tbh though we bought at the top of the market and there are something like 25000 new homes being built in my town between now and 2025. We can afford to sit tight though - its a 4 bed house and we are only using 2 at the moment, we can stay put and wait for the market whilst making it a long term home for us. Not worried.

But the long term will always show an upward trend in prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted July 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2012 The missus has just txt me... "Can we watch the open ceremony for the olympics tonight baby? xxx" Stupid girl!!! Must admit I would very much like to avoid the whole crap showbiz thing and cut straight to the sport. But the opening ceremony is the ONLY bit that my sport-hating missus wants to see. So the least I can do is sit and watch it with her, as I intend to watch a lot of sport over the next couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
