  • So 5 months after accepting an offer, the sellers of the house decided to try and hold us hostage for another £50k. We told them to feck off and that's that. Back to evenings on Rightmove.

    Found a project house. Will need new electrics and possibly new heating (although boiler looks relatively recent). Hopefully going back for a second viewing with a builder later this week. We think it's liveable as is, and we wouldn't extend, but would remodel internally at some point.

    Is there anything that any one wishes they had done/know now having taken on a project themselves?

  • As pleased as I am with the end result of my project house, it has been very very stressful and my wife was going ape shit about the mess on a daily basis. Had I known how stressful it would have been I would have thought very carefully about undertaking such a project whilst living there.
