PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

How long since you last saw your purchase property?

Saw mine in the mid December, completed it the start of May. Did a drive by in between as I was buying when Covid first hit.
I must have worn the ink off the sales photos and my phone was probably relieved when I got the keys as it was fed up with me opening / closing the saved PDF.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.0 -
We moved 250 miles a couple of years ago, first viewing mid July, another August (although that wasn't official as the property was empty and we just walked around the woodland) again early September for some measuring up and finally the day of exchange in December.0

Viewed in November, 2nd viewing January and then was able to have another viewing just before exchange as the owners had left. Completed in March, the property was a part exchange with a developer.0

First viewed at the end of July, then we had a second viewing 14th September to measure up some things. Hoping we will exchange and complete this month, so I don't expect to view again before then! We have driven past quite a few times though, as the house is empty so I don't feel as creepy
