Title: bit of luck
Post by: tunnie on 01 July 2010, 20:44:00
Going to confirm it tomorrow, but it looks like the seller of my flat is leaving everything  :o

Sofas, dinning room table, all kitchen appliances, blinds, curtains, bathroom cabinets, work desk, bed, bedroom furniture, blinds and even the free standing lamps  :o

I had the impression from estate agency and the vendor that she had another property which she was renting out (as i was told she already had another house) I think she was renting it out as she asked for a 1 month gap between exchange and completion (just like 1 month notice on rental)

So my budget for furnishings just took a nose dive!  :D

indeed, its made things more comfortable. Even better no need to sell bike!  :D

It was my plan to sell that and use some, not all of the funds to get some nice things for the flat.

As it stands, all i'll need to buy is a TV  ;D

Nothing indicated in contract or communications from her, i get the feeling the house she has been renting out is furnished, hence no need for current fittings

Get free Sky TV, free movies, sports, internet & phone. But have to buy the TV  :(

We have we have 7 x 20" Monitors and 2x 32" TV's at my desk, they might notice one of the 32's missing.

However there are 5 x 60" TV's behind me.... maybe one weekend......  ::)

Got to make it your new home and christen it properly.  1st think I have allways done is Nuke the throne room and blast the kitchen over.  Might be worth haveing the/doing the carpets cleaned as well, then you are off to a nice clean new start.

Going to confirm it tomorrow, but it looks like the seller of my flat is leaving everything  :o

Sofas, dinning room table, all kitchen appliances, blinds, curtains, bathroom cabinets, work desk, bed, bedroom furniture, blinds and even the free standing lamps  :o

I had the impression from estate agency and the vendor that she had another property which she was renting out (as i was told she already had another house) I think she was renting it out as she asked for a 1 month gap between exchange and completion (just like 1 month notice on rental)

So my budget for furnishings just took a nose dive!  :D

code for you hire the skip.

Leather sofas are practically brand new, as is a lot of things in the flat. I won't need to throw out anything apart from the mattress
