Thanks for the reply. HAvent spoken to an account, plan on doing this some time soon. But seeing as I wont be using it as my PPOR then from reading what Elkam wrote has me somewhat concerned about doing this whole thing.What other ways are best to go about it?

Coopranos –

Thanks for the tips…Im still yet to recieve my books and im itching to get reading.

Your last tip is actualy something I have been thinking about and most probably will do. Say after the 12 months I have finished my renovations – would you say (and others who read this) it is best to lease or sell?

Im happy to announce that I have…[Read more]
