Moving Fast

We've had an offer on the house and we've made an offer ourselves-on a house in Sheerness on the Isle of Sheppey. 

We now enter a period of uncertainty. Anything or everything could fall through. Nothing has been signed, no money has changed hands. 

The house in Sheerness is about the same age as this one and a little smaller. The big selling point is that you cross the road, climb over the flood defences and there's the sea...

Wow. now you can write poetry about the ocean...!

What a neat place, I hope both offers go through and you get what you want.

Thanks.

I love the sea. But I never thought I'd be able to afford a seaside home.

This sounds just absolutely lovely. I know what you mean about not thinking you'd be able to afford it. I'm glad you would.

House prices round here have suddenly soared. When we put this house on the market ten years ago it was unsaleable.

I never thought there would be any sort of parity between house prices here and anywhere in the affluent south east.
