We ended up abandoning it actually. We're keeping looking for now. Hopefully looking at buying again in the near future.

Really sweetpea? Oh well thanks for the update - we found a place in grasmere/waikiwi (with huge section although no garage at the moment) we really like so are going to give that one a shot and the one near you was going to be our fall back option.
That sucks shadowfeet but a house is a huge purchase so you have to be really happy with it so im sure the perfect place will come up soon. Im so sick of house hunting at the moment tho so hopefully this place works out!!!

Another house in derwent street has come up on the market it might be outside your price range though Terri. The professionals have it. Good luck with the house hunting i am sure you will all find something that suits you. To be honest the house we brought found us we weren't orginally going to llok at it but we went past and saw the open home and well the rest is history

Each of the houses we've ended up loving I've disliked the first time we've been through, then been back and changed our minds. We're negotiating for another one at the moment, vendor is currently travelling, so could take a while.

We were negotiating on one and DP decided we werent going higher so i told Chris then like 30 min later changed his mind and it was too late a guy who wants to build on the front got it but he has 10days to go unconditional so we are trying to get pre approved by the bank so we can put in a cash offer cos unless the other offer falls through thats our only hope. Otherwise back to the hunt again

I love living at my parents they are wonderful but we need our own place and to do things our way so im getting kind of impatient with the whole house hunting thing even thou i know the longer we wait the better off we will be.

Oh gosh yea, I hate living with my parents and that's without any kids. Sure you might be better waiting a while due to interest rates, but demands definitely gone up here.

I know but the longer we wait the bigger our deposit so we might be able to go to a higher price which means we will probably get exactly what we want without having to do alterations or get a new roof or better yet something that at least has a double garage.
One of the agents was telling us their biggest problem is getting houses to sell at the moment
