Wragby Road - it's a bit in the middle in terms of transport but I quite like the street

Looked out house prices outside M25 in Surrey/West Sussex/ Berkshire area. Don't get much more than in london!
-
• #11606
Aye. I'm originally from Horsham and the prices there are no different to South London once a season ticket is taken into to consideration.
-
• #11607
Yeah crazy. Knew Surrey wasn't 'cheap' but was a little shocked.
Need to move somewhere out the M25 with train connection and a garage.
Going to be hard finding somewhere reasonably priced! -

Surrey my ass. Brentwood should kill anything that is still posh in you. Good riding there. And there is going to be Crossrail.

I think Herts/Essex is nicer than Surrey or Kent. None of the proper commuter belt is cheap though.
-
• #11610
Yeah. I'd move to Essex (grew up there, love to ride there), but need to get to guilford. And not commuting around the M25 each day.

Ah I see. Read it as a "need to get out of London" thing.
-
• #11612
Yeah. You read right. I forgot to include that condition.

Hurst Green in Surrey has good train connections to London and is just outside the M25, not that easy to get across to Guildford by public transport though. Apparently the prices drop around Liphook and now the tunnel is in place that's a fairly short trip to Guildford. Not Surrey though.

Bicycle/motorbike So don't need public transport to Guilford. Thanks for suggestion! Will check out.

You could potentially live in the South Downs national park and ride ~20 miles to Guildford.

Here's some which caught me by surprise.
First mortgage payment, might be slightly more than normal because of timings.
Then bring on startup & cleanup costs - first stocking the pantry/fridge, cleaning products.
Tools, nails, fence post, silicon sealant, etc
Finalizing bills from previous property.
Goodbye £3k -

We went from a flat to a house so it was the garden stuff that cost us. Furniture, mower, tools, decking care/fence care, shed.

Anybody bought in and around Thornton Heath? Had an offer accepted / mortgage approved just need to get a homebuyers survey done and I guess it makes sense to find somebody local who knows of any surrounding issues..or does it matter?
#knowthatfeel but nice work!
