Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Exciting day Meglet!

So my next door neighbours have put their house on the market. I wonder if it's been inspired by our other neighbour selling so quickly? They fancy an even bigger period property in Stonehaven. Here it is if you fancy a look:

I'd love a Fetchie to buy it ;-)

What a stunning house. So light and airy. It'll mean a longer commute for Mrs XB but I'm sure she will get used to it:-)

Quick work Meglet!

I'm going to struggle. I'm about £20,000 short of the average 2-bedroomed property in the potentially affordable area of Bristol for me that allows me to commute without too much hassle.

I now need to focus on getting a better job to increase my mortgage potential. I can't see any other way around it at the mo'. Even the wrecks are £200k away from me!

I finally saw something I wanted to offer on. It was a beautiful flat on 2 floors with a courtyard garden and a small outhouse. Here: rightmove.co.uk

T'was as lovely as it looks in the pics and a great location right on the park and 10 mins walk from station to get to work.

I went in at my absolute max - £4k over asking. I was told that people went in over 10% of asking price and some had no property to sell. Mine is in process of selling but my bid wasn't high enough anyway.

I've been offered a flat-sit for 6 months, so I think I will do that and maybe tag another on the end and keep saving.

Oh no RS that's a shame. But it will put you in a better position if you have no chain so probably a good move.
