billy can i ask why he isnt selling it ? is he not right in the loaf ? why does he want to let somebody live in it when he could make a packet.... ?? :blink:   :blink:
  sorry mate i just find that a pretty daft idea  :wacko:   :wacko:

  john..seller of houses..not lender of houses

Country people are different than city folk John.Ever heard of keeping thing's in the family so to speak.This wee farm and everthing that goes with it,have been in his family for hundred's of year's mate.Quess that has a lot of clout with some folk.Also,with the price of site's lately,and the posibility of the law changing again,as regard's rural building,then he'd be foolish to sell it.Im just glad of the offer John,and also glad that he's not cash crazy like some folk.
 
billy i had a mate last year in a similar situation as yours , he left his council house to move to a farm where he was told he cud live as long as he liked but 9mths later he was ordered to go as sum big devoloper offered silly money to buy the place and the owner bit his hand off and there was a clause in the small print that enabled the owner to turf my mate out if and when he pleased , although he did give him sereval months to get sumwhere else to live, so good luck in what you decided but just check that the same cant happen to you

Legaly,there still must be a contract drawn up,and that will be done through a solicitor anyhow,so what it say's on the tin,it will have to be.Might have to turn him down on the offer though,cause if my 14 year old get's told that his aunt died in the house,then that will be the end of us accepting the offer.Like i said,the kid's come 1st.
 
What an offer I would jump at it .....But as others have said LOOK into everything small print and the invisable print too if you do do it then make sure you have it all sown up to your benifit and of your children in the future . the way things are going were property is concernd our children wont be able to afford the get there own places so make sure that they will be ok after you are gone (but not for a long time yet Billy) :- "

If you know what I meen
 
as long as its a legally binding contract then go for it....i would given the chance :D .

My sis in law & family sold up there immaculate 4 bed detached to buy a farmhouse & land. they've put in planning permission to rebuild the house and they are currently living in a caravan on the land whilst waiting fot it to come through...they love it, acres & acres for the dogs (inc ours who we take up there every weekend) to mess around in.

deff go for it :teehee:

I think it's just that some mate's are true to that word John.Dont mean anything by this,so please dont take it that way.He has been keeping my greyhound's for me ,for over 2 years now,free of charge.His dad,before he died,used to come out and watch us schooling the dog's on their ground,at the lure.All he get's from me are a few Salmon each year,and summit at Christmas.He will of coarse be working the rest of the farm,but need's someone he can trust to look after the house,as it's in his interest to have someone living there who he know,s well.He know's too that i would just love the place for the dog's n stuff,and with the river at the bottom of the garden so to speak.Thing is though,that i have a wife n 3 kid's to think about,and their vote must come 1st.We have looked the place over,(twice),and will go back for a 3rd look,tomorrow.There are quite a few thing's needed sorting,such as school' n thing's.Sophie is a bit scared ,as the woman who lived there might have died in the house.Sophie is 14 years old,and at that funny stage,where she's terrified of thing's that go bump in the night.It is a great chance of lifetime security,as far as a home goes,but we will see.
go for it billy .rhonda and myself had a little farm house not far from her mums with plenty of room and outhouses but we thought we were missing somthing and moved back to the estate worst move we ever made our oldest boys keep talking about it they would love to move back there and it would be great for the dogs if it ever comes up again i think rhonda would be away like a shot :thumbsup:
