It looks lovely. There are none that style on the site that we are buying on. They are mainly 3 storey and the style that we are having.
Didnt realise that you were already in a new build from bellway! Did you have it from new? Did it go up much in value?0 -
We bought it when it was six months old from a couple who divorced
We paid £46,500 and sold it back to bellway for £110,000
That was 7 years ago now0 -

They really are quite flexible these days aren't they.anger, denial, acceptance0 -

I wish I had taken some photos of the actual house
This is the pic from their website
That looks like a lovely house, is it a 5 bed?
The site I was looking at was a Wimpey one and there 5 bed show house is identical and priced at £399k. There is no way our budget would stretch that far, no wonder you managed to acquire a 20% discount. The one I would really like is the 4 bed detatched version which is on for £335k but even with a 20% discount it's still priced too steeply.Competition wins - 09/03 - £500 ELC Vouchers 11/04 - Lush Goodies 21/04 - Gillette Fusion Gift Pack 22/05 - Mirrors DVD 29/05 - Return Flights to London & £500 29/05 - £50 Homebase Gift Vouchers 20/09 - Remote Control Helicopter 28/09 - £225 Bingo Win 05/10 £25 Photobox Vouchers 16/09 £90 Cash 30/11 £29 Cash 03/01 £20 03/04 Fifa Football :T0 -

Looks like we are at the same point now. Do you know how long before we set a date?
The solicitors letter said it would take them a week to physically get the money but I think it's all done electronically now so might not take that long.
Can't wait :-)0
