Good luck, hope you find the right place for you! :) I've never been to view flats before but when looking around for a house at Uni I always enjoyed imagining where all my stuff's gonna go. Kind of like your own Ikea!



Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world awaits in darkness for the light that is you.

Thanks all. :)

It was a good viewing. I'm going to sleep on it, but it's not really want I want so unless I have a brainstorm it'll probably be a no.
It was a bit too itsy bitsy, and wasn't located in a place where I would feel comfortable walking after dark. Otherwise it was ok.

But I have made a start and that is pretty amazing for me.

Getting out there viewing flats is a good start, so well done. I hope you find a new home soon.x

It sounds like even though it might not be exactly what you want, it was still a positive experience, so that's good :)

Hopefully something more suited will present itself soon ^_^

Thanks Katy.

I have another plan up my sleeve [a healthy one, so don't worry on that front!] but I'm not sure if it's best for me or not. We'll see.

Looks like the alternative plan is scuppered as I misread the criteria. I guess I could phone them on Monday anyway..

I hope you did phone and are keeping an eye out. You can see many many many flats before the ideal so don't be disheartened. Having a good idea what you want is a *good thing* there's nothing worse than saying no to the wrong place and being locked into a contract there. Been there done that; not good!!!

I emailed them instead, and things look hopeful.

Last time I rented with an agent, I withdrew from a dodgy let before moving in, thankfully 'only' losing £200 but it has made me so much more wary this time. That time I did find somewhere really nice with a different, more reputable agent, at least.
