Defoe croydon as more for money and fantastic transport links. Whilst its rep is poor I try not pay attention to that because I do see good points . There was one place I loved but never got to see as off market but I've been told once vendor sorts out issues will put back on end of year so kind of waiting on that one but I have looked t other places but I jut ont get that feeling. I know I should keep open on other hints but I feel then it would bug me later on if I settled.

I'm going no use this search I've to keep saving which will go to buying bits for whenever i buy my dream home.
