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?
No matter what anyone says it'll go on longer than you wanted, cost more and will have you wishing you didnt start. Especially if your living in it and doing the work.
