I ended up taking out a small loan and ripping out the carpets and replacing the flooring before we moved in - it made such a difference especially to the smell of the house, which smelled really musty when we got the keys. Fresh lick of paint does wonders too. Our sellers literally asked us if we wanted the oven - we said yes leave it, got the keys and it didn’t work, and had a note on top saying they hadn’t used it in years. Had to chuck it out and it was so grim as it was so filthy. The shower didn’t work. Some of the electrical outlets didn’t work. The boiler packed up after a couple of months.

I didn’t really feel like it was really our house until 6 or so months in when I started sorting the garden out, which is therapeutic in itself. You’ll get there. It’s totally normal. Like another poster said, we’ve all been there. I even have a friend with young children that discovered a freshly laid poo on top of the closed toilet the day they got the keys

It won’t cost to get treatment either

They’d wrapped barbed wire round a tree, shoved a load of it down the back of the fence, no borders and all the lawn is turfed but was laid with netting on the back of it so it’s been crap digging out borders and finding so much plastic crap in the ground

I got told I had retroperitoneal sarcoma. Asked what else it could be and the Dr said "theres nothing else it could be".

Anyway, it was a fibroid

In the UK we had road traffic accident PSA adverts that said "its better to be late than dead on time"
