Well, not much of a blogger am I - a whole 6 weeks of radio silence. 

 

To be fair, not that much has happened. We have endured a typical English summer of rain and more rain (arguably worse than in normal years!) and there has been a glut of good property on the market as people have made their seasonal rush abroad (not bloomin' suprising!)

 

So we have been down to Brighton on several occasions looking at pretty average property that didn't quite fit our spec. Until recently that is! We have just had first refusal on a property we looked at back in March. We couldn't put in a serious offer then, but we can now. So, we went in at the offer of the previous buyers and have had it accepted. So we're both very pleased with ourselves. It's on the right road and only 10 mins from the station. 4 bedrooms as well. However, whilst it is a nice Victorian terraced property like all the others on the street, we have to say that is is has the most ugly dormer window we have ever seen. It's about the size of a small conservatory bottled on the roof in some grotesque fashion.  

 

We will upload some photos to proudly display our 'ugly duckling' in due course. Meanwhile is the property market finally turning, could we be buying at the top?
