    no coz dh is just rubbish and will end up just saying ok we'll pay 450.... he leaves it all to me and i hate it....

    but the only thing he can do is say no in which case we'll just have to arrange some more viewings via agents etc.

    but yeah i stand a good chance of being in there for march.... :)
    plus i think my sisters partner is getting sick of us now lol

  • You have nothing to lose by asking, fingers crossed he'll let you have it for £400.

    Really hope you get it and get it at £400. Sounds ideal for what you want now.

    im waiting for my interview thing with them :)

    got a house....
    we, well I, had to haggle with him (and i hate it) but we didnt get it for 400, we're comprimising at 425 but we also arent having to pay any fees and he said we dont need to worry about a deposit.
    so we've actually got two cheques which amount to 2 months rent, so thats a good buffer....

    we went through all the monies of it, like even if we found somewhere cheaper per month, we'd still have to pay agents fees and a deposit....
    but im sure we'll get some help with it from housing benefit..... plus i think we just really need to be moved now..... there was a "discussion" earlier

    i think a lot of it is interpretation...

    basically some conversation between dh and bil about borrowing a car which was all agreed and then bil decided no, but not to actually tell us no, so dh is like frantic trying to find one to hire so he can attend his interview tomorrow...

    its all sorted out now...
    sis said bil was in a mood about something else so i dont think its actually personal..... just in the firing line..
