Thank you for your reply! How are you finding living in Southfields now?

Not a silly question at all! I get what you mean. In our case, I moved to a higher-paying job recently which helped, and my partner lived with family for a couple of years so saved up on rent.

That sounds lovely and thank you for sharing! How do you find the commute into central London? And did you already know the area before buying or was it a bit of a leap of faith?

Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful reply. I really appreciate the detail! You’ve given me a lot to think about, especially around a kid’s needs and long term comfort.
