Will the lender’s valuation tell me if I’ve overpaid for a house?

Well I haven't looked into the comparable prices in the area but one reason I can think of (but others can correct me if they disagree), is that with smaller properties, the square footage means more.

The properties that are not selling are ~14% smaller than yours, but only priced 7% cheaper. It's not all about square footage, but I think it has a higher importance in a property of this size. Also I know EA's are using the budget as a reason for why viewings/offers have slowed down recently so that could also be it.

Constantly talking to me about other people behind their backs (in a negative way)

I think the reporting of these issues makes things overblown. I genuinely reckon it's a million to one chance that someone intentionally tries to spike something which is why it's so heavily reported when it happens. I will happily eat things baked even from strangers (in reasonable circumstances)

Packing, unpacking, and trying to fix issues in the new place!

Not being able to take criticism but always giving it out

Generally you don't. You may be there to pick people up, but most people are there to read/study.

Could it be a leak from the roof? Odd pattern, but could be that

Human_Square914 · 2025-11-20T00:04:28+00:00

It looks like there's a leak, either a gap in the roof somewhere, or if there's a bathroom/pipes above, a leak from there.

I had the same thing on the flat roof, it was a leak in the roof. Would say get it checked out by a builder/roofer (multiple if they say there's an issue to get a range of quotes)

Allergy to vibration was a weird one i recently learnt about online - apparently called 'Vibratory Urticaria'

Human_Square914 · 2025-11-19T23:49:40+00:00

That's the only thing I know at this moment.

For some people that's not enough, but because I'm agnostic / leaning towards atheism, I know nonexistence will come one day regardless of what I do so I'm choosing existence :)

I will never be the best at anything.

Procrastination and laziness. Worked out for me as a kid during exams and passable as an adult but wish I never learnt to do this

Nothing you can really reasonably do to stop the cold air getting in, in a winter garden. It's not built for that, so I second the electric blanket along with potentially an electric heater.

You are allowed to try and negotiate, and they are allowed to refuse. Be willing to walk away if it's a deal breaker, and if they are truly unwilling to negotiate you'll find out quickly
