  • I have to thank the previous owner for their negligence though otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford our place.

    This is the exact position I'm in as well. It's absurd to be grateful to a group of people who ran down the value of a property over a period of many years, but I am. I'd still be renting without them.

  • Ha absolutely, I've learned my lesson - the new place I'm moving into needs decorating, no more. But when I moved into this place it needed the electrics doing, a new boiler, mould removal, lease extension, and a RTM put in place. I'm glad we did it but christ it's going to be nice to just live in a flat again, rather than manage it.

  • Fixing all the problems though...gad do not underestimate the pain.

    I’m getting that, at the same time it will keep the flat value high in the long run with the main problem sorted.

    But also a lots of the issues can wait which is helpful.
