Hi Mamafeelgood, Sorry to ask again, but following what you have said about the (possible ) deal between the council and housing corp, do you think that we may have to sell our flat back to the council, compulsory? We are scared of being forced out in the next 10 or so years. Thanks again, Elizabeth

Hi Keef, Sure, the building is called 'Tidworth house' and the apartment is a small 2bdr. I think the previous owner purchased from the council. We had not thought that we could afford the area, but we have found estates to be fairly resonably priced. I am from australia and we dont have many estates so at first i was unsure (dont have experience with govt / system / council issues ) , but because the place 'ticks so many boxes' we decided to press ahead. Hi Vik, Thank you very much for your post- it has been very helpful. Elizabeth

HI! I am writing to ask for some help from members of this thread. I am currently in process of buying an ex-council flat in Tidworth house, Dog Kennel Hill Estate, opp. sainsburys. I am in love with Dulwich and i think the spot i have is fantastic. However, last nigh i was speaking to a friend who used to live in Dulwich and he was also very enthusiastic abou the area. He then rembered that when he had lived there (within last 10 years) the council had tried to take back the estates on the hill as the land was worth a lot of money. Apparently there was a big struggle against the council. Does anybody know anything about this? if so, could you please fill me in? Thanks and Regards, Hoping all goes well as cannot wait to be a community member in the area.
