The agent has already specified due to the auction being only a couple weeks away that it would have to be an unconditional offer...

    HELP - your advice on reno for tiny 70's 1br flat

    I have seen this small but light filled 1br apartment and am considering securing it for my PPOR. I plan to live in it as long as it suits my single lifestyle (single city dweller), and hence plan to renovate this for myself, with the idea that into the future I could let it out when needed...
