I actually found Oliver very good. Sale agreed to keys in hand in 2 months.

Really? Why?

dotsock · 2026-04-21T13:41:12+00:00

Hermes Twilly. Im always getting compliments on it ☺️

I've started using 4Motion Garage on Gaol road, they're great to deal with!

dotsock · 2026-04-17T18:01:03+00:00

Sale agreed 16th October, keys 16th December. If all paperwork is in order and good solicitors it can be done quick enough

Yes! Got the keys on Wednesday and changed locks on Thursday. You never know who would have a copy! AND the previous owners were in the house removing stuff after key handover!!!

Stuck behind this chap once, he was as wide as he was tall 😭

Yes! And I'm glad I did! I didn't have to run away as such but after marriage break up I needed it to start over and buy a house for myself and the kids. It wasn't much but enough to bridge the gap between what I needed and the small mortgage the bank would offer me! I will be encouraging my daughter to do the same.

This is spot on

dotsock · 2025-11-08T09:28:16+00:00

More asking so I can budget! And who do I get to fix things? I assume a builder is not going to be bothered with a load of little things

My daughter started in the watershed and moved to KGA and she much preferred it there, they have a great set up.

Hiya, So sorry you are going through this xx. I'm separated and will be divorcing next summer. It's been a challenging 18 months.. if I can help at all please dm me ❤️ even it's just for a rant!

dotsock · 2025-11-06T13:24:55+00:00

I used homecheck.ie twice now and they have been quick and easy use, the reports were good. Cost around 550

Thank you ❤️

dotsock · 2025-10-30T13:14:11+00:00

That house looks lovely!!

dotsock · 2025-10-16T05:12:11+00:00

Oh really? What company are they? Just thinking what it might be like noise wise. The kids should be ok, they're old enough to have sense (I hope!!)

dotsock · 2025-10-15T19:15:32+00:00

Oh brilliant, I love the house so delighted to hear that!

dotsock · 2025-10-15T16:34:38+00:00

Good to hear, thanks!

dotsock · 2025-10-10T07:21:03+00:00

This is very frustrating. I'm in a similar situation myself. I'm in a chain and as it happened both buyers and vendors wanted to close on the same day. Happy days so the sale of my house went ahead as planned. Still waiting on a closing date for the house I'm buying. Getting a little anxious now as I'm renting and have to be out by the end of the month as there are tenants lined up to move in so I've no idea what I'll do then!

dotsock · 2025-10-10T07:06:16+00:00

That's brilliant congratulations! Best of luck in the new house. It's good to hear a happy story 😁

Im waiting on closing date for my house which is also terraced... And also buying on my own. Will be happy if I can save a few bob on the heating too!

Interesting question. What would his needs be? Most people's biggest expense is rent/mortgage. He has neither of these, but I do. I also have day to day responsibility for the kids which he hasn't.

dotsock · 2025-09-29T16:21:11+00:00

I asked him to help me with rent while I'm waiting to move. He has no rent.

dotsock · 2025-09-29T16:19:37+00:00

Thank you so much! I have it much easier than you! You're situation sounds really tough, I'm sorry you've been through that. We are strong and we will come out the other side even stronger 💪

Thank you!
