My point is a PPOR is an emotional purchase, a place you're going to reside in and it should tick all of your criteria for living there, with price a lower priority.
I don't see a PPOR as an investment as it generates me no income.
Will work well if it's the same agent selling both properties, for sure! Anyway, there is some comfort to know that his price estimation was almost on the money so the value he put on the property was accurate...just not accurate enough to win it ;)
That's annoying missing it for 2k. Why would the agent tell you that?! not sure what purpose it serves. At least you know your offer was very close, so can feel good about that. Hope you get the other one!
