Update on the flat viewing.
Yes. Update on the flat viewing. Not so impressed at all actually. As Haz commented on the photos from the ad it looked very light, airy and spacious but when we got there it felt tiny! The estate agent most have broke out the largest wide-angle lens she could find when she took those! Also the view sucked! In that last row of photos the one taken sort of off to the left side outside, there was a reason she took it looking out that way. If you turned and look straight a head all you could see was this big 7 floor building that looked really rough and dingy that was on the left hand side. Nope not impressed.
Also on the minus side it was a bit of a walk from the bus stop and as it is atm none of us have a license so buses and close by stops are sort of important. Andreas does plan on getting a license soon but yeah, we need to think about now not just later.
So today the agent called and asked if we were interested and Andreas said like it was and she told us that at least 2 or 3 new flats are coming up in the next few weeks that sounds more like what she thought was our thing. So looking forward to those.
We do already have another viewing on monday for this flat. It's a 3 bedroom which would be sort of a good thing if we want to have more than one kid and don't want to move again soon. But the bidding has already begun for that one and we know that many people that have 2 bedroom flats in that area are looking to buy bigger. But we've got nothing to lose by looking at it.
If the url's I link to disappears it's because the ads for the flats are taken down when they've been up for a while.
UPDATE: just took a look on the site of the flat we saw yesterday again and the atm the biding is up to 900 000 sek (about £75 500, up more than £16 000 over the asking price)! All I can think is WHAT!?? But yeah, someone at the viewing yesterday must have liked it! That mush in just one day of biding?
