UK House finding sites
Hi, Does anyone have any good house for sale and land for sale type websites they use in the UK. Here they have domain.com.au etc. Just wondered if there was anything simular back home.

Re: UK House finding sites
That about covers my list then Bramble!!!!
I spend many a happy hour on those. Then come off thouroughly brassed off because reality hits; we're here and I would rather be there!
Arkon, does this mean you're looking at getting out of there sooner rather than later then?

If you're looking for specific areas try yelling for estate agents too. Loads of online local agents now.

Re: UK House finding sites
I'll just add. I spend many an hour trying to figure out how to escape and absorb the big financial loss from comming here. One idea is to buy some land in the UK and build a house, It would go someway to offsetting my loss here.

Re: UK House finding sites
Our mates are doing that in north Cornwall. They bought the land and had the house shipped over from Germany in kit form. Then they have to breeze block it etc. Way cheaper option.

Oh I saw something on tv about one of those...amazing! They had a German team to build it and do the basics, pipes and electrics..took them 48 hours! That's going some! Very tempted
