Just saw reports saying Hearts are confident Tony Bloom’s investment won’t cause any problems with UEFA rules for Europe next season. There was a bit of concern because of the Brighton and Union SG connections, but it sounds like things were set up properly from the start. Really can’t wait for the qualifying round draw now. European nights at Tynecastle are going to be unreal.

I’ve started setting up daily alerts on Rightmove for places within my budget, and the second something decent appears, I try calling the agent straight away. But loads of times I’m being told the property already went under offer or was agreed the day before, even though the listing only appeared a few hours earlier. Is this just a normal part of flat hunting in London now, or do agents sometimes leave listings up longer to build waiting lists/get more enquiries?

I’ve just been put on a reserve list for a role I really want, but the uncertainty is making planning ahead a bit awkward. I’m looking at moving flats in the next couple of months, and I’ve heard plenty of stories about PECs/vetting taking ages once an offer finally comes through. If you change address in the middle of checks, does it massively complicate things or delay everything, or am I overthinking how strict the process is?
