‘What Would Beyoncé do?’
📍 Manchester
When I saw the pictures on the estate agents website I genuinely thought the wall had just been replastered before being photographed.

But nope, just a weird paint choice 😂 I can’t think of anywhere it would look good in a home

Such a weird choice of colour. In the photos from the estate agent it looked like they’d remastered the wall, and it put me on edge thinking they were hiding something.

Turns out they just had a er… shitty pallet

Wasn’t very well ventilated even when the previous tenants were in there. So as soon as I’ve put the heating on and fired the boiler up it has made the marks look worse.

Got a 12L dehumidifier being delivered tomorrow so I’m hoping that will start to pull some of the moisture out the walls.

Thought there must be a leak or something, so I had someone go up into the loft yesterday and it’s completely dry up there and the chimney is dry too. So we were thinking it could just be condensation spots. The house has been empty since the start of May, and by all accounts it…

So when I first went to view the house I noticed what looked like water marks on some of the walls. I got the surveyor to check them out and nothing major came back.

But when I went in yesterday the marks were the same shape but a lot darker as if they were wet. So I was like… shit!

Thanking youuuu 💙💙 I walked in yesterday morning and within about 3 minutes I had a problem already 😂 I think I’m being over cautious.

Don’t make the mistake of telling anyone in work! If I dare mention I have free gaps they’re GONE.
