1st time buyers, if you can't afford to buy a home in IRL, consider a 'move to Brittany'. WFH if that is your thing, enjoy a far, far better life style, learn French from French native speakers. They are friendly, will help you lots! The Wi Fi is very good, not expensive. Cost of living less than in IRL.
There are many ex-UK pats, some ex-Irish pats too.
The reason for the sale, have other homes, after 21 years consider it is time to have less, enjoy family life.
Maybe even able to help you getting a mortgage, you are seriously interested, contact me.
