Well, as I hadn't been on the site for a while, this seems a prudent place to update:
Our little boy was born in September last year, whilst we were still living in our 1 bed house in St Albans. We weren't able to move because we had no significant savings and our equity, whilst still positive, wasn't anywhere near what we needed.
We then had a chat with Persimmon Homes, who was building a site in a little village called Stotfold, not far from Letchworth (see: The World's End), about 1/2 hour up the A1.
One part exchange and Government-backed 95% New Buy scheme later, we're now living in a 4 bed detached in Stotfold, which has a nice sized detached garage with power and light. :) Bike insurance went down as a result of moving, but only but about £20, which was swallowed up by the "admin fee". :rolleyes:
We've been in the new place around 8 months now and it's all very nice! :) Local visitors always welcome and there's the lovely A507 running right past our estate. In the evenings, with the windows open, you can hear bikes blatting up and down it - it's lovely! :)
Hi dude all sounds top stuff and congrats
Good to see you got sorted Johnny.
I did ponder how you might have managed with a little one in your old house.
Sounds good :azn:
