75K was an estimate to get it nice and livable... the guys I get to do my my building work are super cheap but decent, pals of mine just spent 140k on getting half their house redone, I'd only be after a small but well designed middle class conservatory so think it would scrape in under 100k. Your mate obvs didn't buy enough bronze/copper.
Can someone make a decision for me please.
Just viewed a house that I can afford, just outside an area I want to live in, its about 150K less than the price of the neighbour, but needs about 75k of work.
My flat is currently fine, but longing for outside space.
The house isn't a stretch (cost wise) just could be a money and time pit.
My wife was quite ill last year, we kinda planned for a year of fun, but is this an opportunity not to be missed as it could be a keeper.
No smug wine shop near by, which is an honest concern, because we are spoilt atm.
I also want to be internet famous like @Fox and his extension, and this would be an enabler.
Someone decide for me please thanks.
