Yes all she had to do is give the estate agent the keys for viewings. No-one would have been any the wiser. It should sell quickly with a closing date hopefully.Yeah chances are her insta/blog followers aren’t gonna be potential buyers. So just don’t mention it? Someone comes across it legitimately on right move they probably don’t know or care who she is.
She has an overinflated sense of importance.
If someone wanted to stalk her they would have before now.
My thoughts exactly on moving back to flat #1 before listing this place. I posted mine before I read yours.Is she that big of a deal that she needs to fear “fans” coming to her house? Who would do that and If she was so scared, why didn’t they move back to the old place before putting this one up for sale? Right cos she has to re-do the bathroom there, again
“ I hope everyone can obey boundaries, be respectful and understand that this is quite a daunting step for us. It’s important that people understand that we still live here in our home, with our beloved pets (and bump hehe), and wish only to feel safe and secure. Putting our address out there for everyone to see is obviously not ideal but sadly we are not in the position to sell off-market (although I did try!)”
A Home Update. - KATE LA VIE by Kate Spiers
Some more news… I know, I know. Nothing from me in about two years and suddenly all this news at once. I’ve said on social media that we’re planning to move soon, and the first step in that plan is to sell our flat. Very exciting in so many ways – we’ve never sold awww.katelavie.com
I think they are doing this, I’m sure I saw on one of her stories a few days ago with everything ripped out.. saying that I had a shower over the bath throughout pregnancy and had no issuesShe’s really pushing the apartment and making it known she’s selling though, even posting that mini apartment tour yesterday. She’s said she’s over half way through her pregnancy so it’s odd that they didn’t make a move to sort all this out a few months ago. Was their other apartment rented out? It all feels very rushed and not very organised.
In fairness, I kinda understand the decision to redo the bathroom. As much as I loved that bathroom the shower is over the bath and that’s going to difficult for her getting in and out of when pregnant. They have the money to do it up and do a separate shower so why not?
I do think that both flats will be up for sale. In the interim they can be looking at the Edinburgh property market.When you're looking to buy the 'perfect' house (like Kate has said she's doing) then surely you'd put your funds towards that rather than completely redoing a perfectly functional bathroom that you'll be using for a few months? I get that the shower over bath might be a bit awkward but surely she could suck it up for a few months? I'm sure many, many people have navigated a shower over bath while pregnant! She strikes me as being high-maintenance in this regard.
Flat #1 has been rented out until now but maybe she's doing it up in order to sell. It's the only thing that makes sense to me really. I don't get why she'd spend money on it if they'll only be there for a few months. Then again, I also don't understand why she retiled the kitchen in flat #2 a mere month or two before putting it on the market.
Clearly my brain works differently to Kate's. Not to mention my budget...
I thought she said they're staying in Glasgow?I do think that both flats will be up for sale. In the interim they can be looking at the Edinburgh property market.
They're staying in Glasgow, Edinburgh was the 'decoy'. I think Glasgow probably does make more sense if it's where her brother lives and where Jordan's family is, even though Edinburgh is only an hour away on the train.I thought she said they're staying in Glasgow?
Or was this a 'decoy?'
Ah right ! Im behing the times.They're staying in Glasgow, Edinburgh was the 'decoy'. I think Glasgow probably does make more sense if it's where her brother lives and where Jordan's family is, even though Edinburgh is only an hour away on the train.
I agree with your first para but will the market tipI think they’ll sell the bigger one to consolidate liquidity to put down a big deposit on a house. Then sell the smaller one to fund big changes to make it fAbUlOuS, or if it’s already insta ready, they can retain their first flat as a solid investment/income stream.
Or maybe they’re waiting for the market to tip? Sell while the going is good for sellers, with prices going crazy. Wait until the market pops so they can pick up a bargain house in the burbs? Meanwhile, babies are portable, it’s very doable to manage a couple of years in a flat.
Definitely not. There’s not enough housing to go round so no way will we see any kind of crashI agree with your first para but will the market tip
I kinda love following Kate for this reason, she has high standards/likes things a certain way (I’m a bit like this too) and she doesn’t have to settle for anything less even if its just that something doesn’t suit her design taste anymore or is mildly annoying. Must be nice!When you're looking to buy the 'perfect' house (like Kate has said she's doing) then surely you'd put your funds towards that rather than completely redoing a perfectly functional bathroom that you'll be using for a few months?

Both flats are in Glasgow, both on the south side.Is her first flat in Glasgow? Just had look at flat online one of the pics is a close up of her cat
housing market is crazy just now so while it’s listed as that, with the offers over system I’d bet theyll get around £250kAnyone else surprised that it's listed for under £200k? How much did she buy that flat for?
I still think that’s really low for the spec in Glasgow. I definitely think there’s either something on the Home Report or neighbor issues.housing market is crazy just now so while it’s listed as that, with the offers over system I’d bet theyll get around £250k
