Lost Chance

My husband and I viewed a property that was going for a steal as it was on a main road. The house had been done up by the current owner who was a builder by trade and it looked amazing.

Someone put an offer onto it but it fell through due to finance. I tried again to encourage my husband and for us to make an offer. Someone else put an offer onto it and again it fell through a second time.

My husband couldn't see the potential of the property which was in a high rental area and would have given good returns.

The house went to auction and I couldn't convince him to attend the auction. It went for less than expected and lower than all of the offers that had been made. We drive past it every day and it still makes me sad.
