Well they say things happen for a reason....

...they could be right!

following the fire/antisocial behaviour issues at my flat, i have had a visit from council maintenance today. They have decided to bring part of the maintenance forward planned for 2017. The works planned are new floor, suspended ceilings, walls painted, new front and back security door with electronic security fob instead of key, video intercom, new windows back and front stretching full height of block, and all posh lighting etc. Currently it is 70s styling, very yuk. I've seen the photos of the work they are doing across the other side of town and it looks like the mutts nuts.

but the best thing...normally i would have to pay for this BUT its going thro the insurance bcoz of the fire and I'm not paying a penny. The whole job for the planned maintenance in 2017 is £36,000 ... Of which i have to pay a quarter!! Although they are not bringing the grounds refurb forward, only the building refurb, i reckon the majority of that £36k would have been for the building refurb... and i think the fire has just saved me around £5 - 6,000!!!

also i know the work will add value to my property. I spoke to estate agent and when its complete they are going to take new photos and out property back on market at full price. Its gonna look posh, no nasty neighbour and I'll be able to sell fingers crossed. Yay

You might not want to sell once it is done.

I'm not sure, he's definitely going but I'm not sure when, waiting for confirmation but i think he may have gone bcoz i don't think they would risk doing the work yet. That's my story anyway...

I think a celebratory gesture is needed...

Go and buy a new bike with the £36,000 you saved!

Well done buggi. Many congratulations. Karma has definitely returned. Good luck.

just to repay karma, I've given my tenant a double bed, leather settee , dress rail, tv, freeview box and chest of drawers. She has been a great tenant, looked after my place really well and had no furniture at her new place bless. Bcoz I've lived somewhere else I've accumulated extra stuff.
you gotta keep the karma going ain't ya!

Fair play on your part for helping her out.
