Houses
The flat upstairs is for sale, two bedroom, £105,000. I have to admit to be quite tempted, it’s not a bad price considering what the flats around here can start at, but I have to admit that I’d prefer to have a house rather than a flat. There’s just something in my head that says you rent flats and buy houses. I’d also quite like a garden, although that would just come with the added problem of having grass to cut.
I’ve looked online at a generous amount of houses over the past week or so, and I’ve been constantly surprised by how reasonably priced so many of them have been. With the current housing boom and constant reports of ridiculous house prices, it’s easy to get the idea in your head that buying anything respectable for anything less than an arm, leg and torso is going to be impossible.
My biggest problem, beyond ones purely financial, is being worried that I’d spend all this money and end up in some horrible location, with constant street noise, neighbours from hell, and a feeling of fear whenever I ventured outside.
