You're probably going to think that I have gone stark raving mad, but I promise you that I haven't.

I have decided to put the flat on the market sooner rather than later. The reason for that is, is that the sooner it is on the market the sooner it will sell.

I went to see somebody at Bushnell Porter today as I needed to speak to someone face to face about all of this because to be honest I don't have a clue what happens when you sell a property. They were really helpful and took me through exactly what happens and what part they play. I am having the flat valued tomorrow, the gentleman who is doing the valuation tomorrow, did the original valuation for my then landlord when I bought the flat. While he is here I will ask him to advise me how much to put the flat on the market for.

Spoke to Brockenhurst Lettings in Andover, they are part of Brockenhurst Estate Agents who have an office in Whitchurch as I wanted to know what happens when you rent a flat through them, they too were really helpful and told me all that I needed to know.

My journey home to Whitchurch has now started and I feel happier inside than I have done for the last 16 years.
