    It’s horrible, there’s no two ways about it. Happened to me time and time again. I had to change mindset to “hopeful” of getting place X but not get too attached and realise it’s not the only suitable option that will cross your path. Easier said than done.

      Thanks. Glad to know I’m not oughtright bonkers. But like I have to make mind plans about where things might go and how the place would flow. I do this for rentals, buying is a bigger scary if we miss something.

        But the plus side is, you can always knock out a wall, put in a window, move a cupboard, etc, if things don’t flow right. Even more money or course, but you do also have that possibility, especially for any more minor alterations (that would still be a big no in a rental)!

          You’d think so, but there are considerations like structural integrity. Moving walls isn’t quite a Mario push game.

              No worries. And I apologise for possibly advising too much.
