Decisions Decisions

Hello All £ saving experts!
I am in need of some advice.
This is my story in brief:

I split from my ex of 11 years 10 months ago, he left the house and i have continued to pay the mortgage on my own as wanted the house. Was a full time student so got a lodger in to help out and been qualified 1 month now and my re-mortgage is all going through.

I am engaged to my new partner now (after 6 months) and we are looking to get our own place as there are too many sad memories for me in this house.

I have paid for the ex to come off the deeds and we are discussing at present how much he will get out of the house (£20,000).

I have a mortgage going through at present with Bristol and West, fixed for 3 years in my name only.

Would it be best to move now or wait a while?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated....

From a confused £££ saving expert trainee :confused:
