I moved into my flat 4 years ago after buying it cheap because it
needed renovating.
I got a lot of the work done on the cheap (or by people who told me
they could do the job cheaper than the next guy, so I trusted them).
Total cost to date about £25k
A lot of jobs were never really done right and some things are starting
to show their age and need redoing ie. upvc windows are draughty, combi
boiler not really powerful enough, not enough radiators in flat so a
few cold areas, wood floor starting to lift especially in bathroom and
basic decorating, etc, etc...
The question is should I keep spending money I can't really afford on a
seemingly never-ending list of repairs and maintenance or should I cut
my losses & move.
Is this just the price of home ownership, always paying out on
maintenance?
I've never really felt happy in this flat and if I sold I would make a
small profit but not enough to allow me to buy a flat of equivalent
size in another area of the city so I would have to start further down
the ladder.

Anyone else been in a similar situation? What did you do?
Thanks for any advice!
