House offer accepted! Eeeeee!

pheebs · 31 Mar 2006 at 20:33

As some of you may know, Pickers and I have been searching for a house in Exeter! Well... we found one last wednesday, offered on it, and it's been accepted!!

It's absolutely gorgeous-diddley! I'm trying not to get too excited as, being an ex-estate agent, I know these things can fall through! But big big mahoosive YAY!

Plus, without even having our flat details put out, someones offered on it and after a bit of haggling... we've accepted! They're in rented accommodation too and ready to proceed straight away - woo hoo!

All happened today so celebrating with a port and possibly a fine wine later!

Big big BIG mega thank you on all your advice reference Exeter! We fell in love with Alphington in the end, but all of it was so handy!

WoOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo HoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOooooooo!

Glad everything is going well in that department after a certain hiccup!

I had an offer accepted last week for a house, gorgeous house, nice price and i was over the moon.
Then I found out that on the whole estate, only 6 houses were private, and all the rest were housing association. Phoned the copshop and they said there has been history in this estate and advised not to move there with a young family.
A close shave, so I am now back on the hunting trail

I offered on a place three weeks ago and had it accepted. I'm trying to to get excited, but as a first time buyer I can't help it.

I'm so looking forward to buying furniture and stuff.

I just hope nothing goes wrong; survey and environmental searches have come back ok and the mortgage has been agreed.

Pickers · 31 Mar 2006 at 22:56

Good luck Asprilla and rayer...
Mortgage SHOULD be sorted (fingers crossed) - just got the surveys to get done really I think.
