... for getting into the housing market ... at last

Now, my top floor flat won't be ready until mid August, but in the interim i'm planning for an uber leet place - most of the home theatre, furniture and entertainment is already bought.

Is there somewhere online, or a piece of software you can recommend, that will allow me to create a three dimensional room (perhaps even 2D, but 3D would be best) and to specify the size of bits of furniture so that I can get a feel for where things would look best?

I've got a scale drawing from the plans and little bits of scale paper furniture, so have an idea already where things will fit.

i know it does exterior, perhaps it does interior aswell.

Google once again saves the world :)

http://sketchup.google.com/ - watch the basics guide videos on the site, it's a piece of piddle to use.

The 3D warehouse has tons of ready-made objects too.

Nice one G :) Having your own place is a great feeling.

Bear in mind though that you have neighbours and they won't appreciate a subwoofer, or wooden floors.

Absolutely Tom, super duper underlay for certain and best of all .... my sister (who lives in london) has bought the flat below me as an investment, so i'll be looking after it for her (surrogate landlord if you like). That'll give me a bit of leeway with music volume ;)

I don't expect it to be rented all year, or indeed for a few months after i'm in - so until people are in it'll be show time!

Wow, you sound like you're really trying to make your sister's investment make some money! :)

The basic (free) sketchup only does exteriors, and the full version is £300+ :eek6:
It is very easy to use though; I played with it to mock up my house and had it done in about 20 minutes.

I used to use one from Data Becker which was alright (not that intuitive but it was a few years back), and they have a free trial version of 3D APARTMENT AND CONDO DESIGNER available for d/l: http://www.databecker.com/downloads/3dapartmentcondodesigner0905.exe

It's not going to be income from rental, she's buying it outright; but there is a block of the same appartments going up opposite mine early next year - the prices will (hopefully) be quite a bit higher, so it's more an appreciation investment.

Rental will be over and above, but yes the more letting the better i suppose :)

I have to start thinking about buying soon :(

Mortgages scare me and I think my Bank Manager may be a Vampire.

And not only that, but you have two, and you said they are hot. Pics NOW!

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Arial]it's been coming for months I got something to say
we're breaking up and there's no easy way
this siutation i never anticipated
how was i supposed to know you was related?
she's older, she's fitter and her tits are bigger
and she makes me laugh it's not all about the figure
i got this problem like a wart or a blister
truth is
I wanna fuck your sister

[/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Arial]Chorus

If you leave me now can I fuck your sister?
And your best friend.

If you leave me now can I fuck your sister?
And your best friend.

[/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Arial]We had fun for a while but I shouldda seen it comin
There's no more smiles, no more songs not even humming
Truth is I always knew it was there
The way we kissed and you left me with a blank stare
Don't want the pain, so I think we ought to act
You want to leave and your suitcase is packed
It breaks my heart but the truth has been said
It's the end of the day so let's jus put this to bed

Good luv I hope you find a perfect Mister
But now you're gone can I please fuck your sister?


Chorus

If you leave me now can I fuck your sister?
And your best friend.

If you leave me now can I fuck your sister?
And your best friend.

[/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Arial]Well yer minds made up and your bags are packed
But I've got something with your sister you and me always lacked.
Like Locomotive's "CHOO CHOO!"
I've run out of track
Yer sisters fit as fuck & your Vadge has gone slack
I still like you
But your sis gets the prize
I was surprised
She opened up all three of my eyes
She's the cherry on my cake
The sausage roll on my beans
When I'm spread eagled on your sister it's a sexual dream.

:D

Despite the fact that you're a complete twat most of the time, tbh that made me lol for real.
