Failed Housing Offer

 Two days ago I received an email and phone call by a housing association asking not whether I wanted to accept an offer or not, but when could I send them over every piece of ID I owned. Naturally I thought this was a scam and so blocked the emails and number. This morning however I got a letter saying it was indeed a natural offer of a 2 bed flat in a new build estate. I looked up the housing association and my joy was short lived.

Everyone on Trustpilot left a negative review, some people without electricity, horrendous ASB, doors not fixed properly, 9 months to have a returned phone call, paper thin walls, mould and rust in a new build. We contacted the housing association and true to form they said they would call us back. This was hours ago and they still haven't returned the call. So its likely that we will turn this offer down.

Its my fault I should have researched the housing association properly before I put in a bid on the property. From now on this is what I will be doing. I still have 2 lifelines left to accept a property and at least I know my bids are getting through. Funny thing is I know I was about 8th or 9th on that flat so all those people before me for whatever reason also turned the flat down.

I still unwell, me and Barry reckon we have covid again although we don't have any more tests in the house. Its exactly the same symptoms as before. This will be the 4th time I have caught covid. Not sure whether my brother is coming down at the weekend, we currently have a major storm on the way and weather and traffic is meant to be chaos. To keep my occupied whilst I'm ill I'm reading Magical Britain 650 Enchanted and Mythical sites and Britain's Pilgrim Places. I highly recommend if you are into 'thin' places, spirituality of places and places of interest.
