I've bitten the bullet, offer accepted on a house.
Placed an offer (quite a cheeky one too
) and it has been accepted, three bedroom house just scraped under the stamp duty threshold.
Hope they don't drop too much more now.

Cheers, hope this one goes through, lost out on a great house last week, due to the woman deciding her ex husband should pay for her to stay in a 4 bedroom house.

Any one know who said
"Buy land, they're not making it any more"
See if you get it right, I'll check again later for the correct answer.

Just done the same. House was up for 120k fixed price. We bid 102,500 and it has been accepted so almost 18k saving. since we'll be there for a few years it shouldn't be an issue and the mortgage is nice and affordable.
Just need to let the flat out now if anyone knows a decent Scottish letting agent.

Well done fingers crossed for you m8, as said before once you are in there what happens to the price is only reflective in what your plans at that time are.

WAY too early to jump in now ...... go to UK house prices, home and property values - FREE from Zoopla! to see what they estimate the price to be - it's pretty much spot-on
