What do we do? do we still go on holiday and have a great time or try our best to get this house. it is gorgeous and it seems its too good to miss..

I agree with everyone else. If you are trying to buy a house then you should keep that commitment going. The hard part is getting into the house. Then you'll be putting money every month into your own pocket instead of someone else's pocket for rent.You have a life time of trips ahead of you. But first you need to make this step for yourself.Since you aren't married, make sure you handle the house buying properly. Get some advise on domestic partnerships.I wish you all the best!

I would buy the house, sure its nice to go on holiday and have a good time, but you don't have much to show for it when you come back and the house might not be available much longer.

Once you are on the property laddder you can think about holidays etc. I would love to have my own place, and would say that if it is within your grasp then go for it! Your family will understand for sure- you can all have a nice housewarming party instead.

Buy the house and take the holiday next year you may never get another property at such a good price.
