Ok point taken. I thought they'd bite my hand off as a cash buyer. Apparently not

That almost sounds like humility. In several years of posting on this site it's the first time I've seen any from you. OK who hacked the account?

Shut it FFS.
Another topic on which you pontificate like an expert while the truth is you still haven't got to first base let alone lost your cherry

So, the story basically is - you had to sell your Wandsworth mansion and buy your ex new smaller house that will be hers, with remaining sum you'll be renting hoping for those lottery numbers to bail you out.

Have you ever been divorced?

If atw was giving advice on sex then I could understand your post. Or on mail order brides come to that.

Divorce it is then.

Assuming the kids will be with the ex please make sure she remains in the same postcode area.

My only risk is if property prices start climbing at an extraordinary rate and I doubt that is going to happen

Not for the next 5 or 10 years anyway. Until QE leaks into inflation leaks into wage rises.

Next time ask on cuk first. We will see you all right. We embrace cretins round here and try to get them up to normality. Not that cuk has helped me much - I am still a cretin....

Mind out you don't end up like that lot in the daily mail.

Well I guess the slight difference is that they had a huge mortgage and I have none at all

Not really desperate - could rent for a while.
But I'm looking for 2 properties one to live in and one to rent out.

Maybe the seller knows he is going to have to move out of his current place having sold it and can smell the desperation.

Maybe the seller is not in any rush. Did you ASK for a counter-offer?

It's a pity you've picked £750k figure because otherwise CUK would have gotten 2nd fantasy millionaire after DimPrawn.

Oh well - try harder next time.

I feel sorry for you in your rented bedsit surrounded by bulk purchases of Kleenex.

[AtW]

Because it doesn't make sense, oh thick one.

Why won't you answer the question oh evasive one?
