So, we start renting and as if that is the magic catalyst the Estate Agent comes back to us and we agree on a lower price for the property in Brighton. We exchanged last week (anyone beat an exchange from offer acceptance within 13 days!) and complete in Mid-Jan. A nice quick turnaround, not si sure what to do about the 6 month rental contract we are now commited to though. Let's hope we have a very understanding landlord!

 

So, by the time we are living down in sunny Brighton we will have almost completed a year of selling, finding and completing...inthat time a lot has happened in the market in general. How we bought at the wrong time? No.....we need somewhere to live and if we are there for the long term then we should ride out any small dips. No point sitting around for years on end waiting for the marke to recover - life's too short!
