Well in an unexpected twist of fate looks like I'm gonna be moving to aldersbrook. The agent selling a house we put a bid on a few weeks back called up and said the sale has fallen through, would I like a second chance to buy? She said it was under offer at 880 after the initial viewing and would I like to increase my offer to match it?
I obviously said no but said I could top it up a bit, so I added another 5k to my previous offer. that was apparently enough to secure it and they accepted.
It's all so fucking murky and it's absolutely ridiculous throwing these figures around for a terraced house. But my wife is keen for our kids to go to the local school.
