COol - it was a great moment walking into my 1st house after completion thinking that I own this and can do what I want; the seemingly large debt didn't dent that feeling much....

Is the house worth £265k? How much work needs doing on it? What do similar houses in the area go for, how long has it been on the market, do you think it will sell quickly? What does a surveyors report say?

I would answer all these questions before putting an offer in.

We bought in September and the house was up for £265. We went in at £223 as it needed alot of work doing (we have spent approx £45k) we ended up paying £232, and now with all the work done its worth £350k !
