After years of lurking this thread once in a while come to join they fray, despite not living anywhere near London anymore.
We put a cheeky offer on this place in North Pembrokeshire couple weeks back at 210k. (Superficially appears needs quite a bit of work doing, lots of redecorating/some windows redoing/insulation etc etc wanted to give ourselves some leeway)
The sellers waited for further viewings that were planned and another buyer offered the asking of £230k.
We got a call back few days ago, the other buyer's chain fell through so we have first dibs. Decided to match the offer and now we wait...
If they accept then it will need a full building survey for sure which more than likely is going to throw up some gremlins. Old house with outbuildings attached, one of which has been unofficially converted to a shitty annexe.
Hopefully they accept as it would be nice to be able to use our help to buy ISAs (house <£250k), and as long as the survey doesn't throw up anything too horrible then it would be a good project to put our stamp on.
