Last weekend we went up to Chester and had a look around a few houses. It was a bit premature really, considering that it will be a few weeks until our house is fit to put on the market, but we thought it would be good to get an idea of what was around.
One of the houses we saw was perfect, and we really liked it. Its on the same road as Paul and Claire (Lou's brother and sister in law), which would be really handy. Plus it is really well decorated and wouldn't need any work doing on it once we'd moved in.
It had only been up for sale for about three days when we saw it. We would really like to put an offer in, but are worried because we haven't even got ours on the market yet. We called the estate agent on Monday to tell them we were interested and to arrange another visit next weekend. Hopefully the fact that this is a slow time of year for the housing market will mean that nobody jumps in ahead of us.
Meanwhile we are working on fixing our house ready to sell it. I replastered and wallpapered the front hallway this week. It looks a lot better. Next week we have a proper plasterer coming to fix the upstairs landing and the walls and ceiling around the stairwell. We need to spend this weekend stripping the remaining wallpaper off so the plasterer can get started. Joy!
