Moving Homes

Well, for those that are around us you know all about this, but I thought that something I could blog on was a belated blog about house moving....

So to catch up where we are here is a quick synopsis....
We had been looking initially to move to a slightly better part of the City, Beatrice Road, in Norwich for those that know it. However after much thought, we have decided to move (try to move) to Thorpe St Andrew as its the closest we get to church and school without being in Dussindale. (Not that there is anything wrong with Dussindale off course, just not our bag)...

So what have we done and where are we with things....

We initally put an offer in on a house for which was accepted BUT they wouldn't take it off the market until we had sold.

At the same time, another house in a similar place came on the market which was a lot cheaper for good reasons which I don't want to go into here (sorry).

We went and put in a silly offer on this house and it was accepted.

10 days later our house came off the market sold and we had in that process negotiated another £2000 of the house we were buying.

So now we are looking at exchanging contracts in two weeks and completing around 2 to 3 weeks after that.

I will post anything that happens .... (although unlikely to post tommorow as I am away on business).

Today - the only thing that changed was that we received (after a long while) the Building Completion Certificate in the post for the structural work we had done on our house.
We have filled out the house agreement (agreeing that we split the house equally if we get divorced).
And thats that.
