They've been throwing up apartment blocks for fun for the past few years. Any bit of land come available and there are apartments to rent there.

Just had a look through these (they called me up too ) they're stunning, but the compact (lets call a spade a spade here) is tiny and even the available medium ones dont have a very big lounge area. I think as well it doesnt even include council tax in the total cost? so even though it says Ł203 a week, it'd end up being Ł950 or so a month with council tax wouldnt it?

Im not really how council tax works tbf we dont have it here sksksk

Y'know ... if you've got enough savings to pay six months upfront, you could afford the deposit for a shared ownership mortage.

Also, very important, but go to each place you visit by nightfall/evening before or after the viewings. If it's a noisy area by night, or noisy neighbours, that's usually a showstopper.

Make sure you actually are able to view it fully before you sign / agree anything

The flat might look nice but it could also stink of piss.
