John Freeman writes: "The best advice I can give to anyone seeking to buy a house in Lancaster is: come and stay here first and do the rounds of the estate agents regularly. When we moved back here a few years ago we found that all of them were pretty terrible about updating us on possible houses when we were seeking to buy, and when properties we were seeking to buy did come up we only found about them by visiting their offices. Quite frankly, I'm amazed some of them are still in business, let alone that they actually sell any houses.
"We found Sue Bridges and Ratcliffe and Bibby to be the best in our quest: all the houses they offered us were in the right ball park and the right price and they were very helpful.

Satori writes: When I first came to Lancaster as a student I knew nothing about the town, or property, so I stayed on campus at first. In a tiny box where I could hear every detail of my neigbours' lives from 4 sides. One day I wondered down to Bailrigg House and was assailed by the scents of grass and trees and the sound of birdsong. I realised I had spent weeks in a concrete battery-farm in the sole company of my peers.

I found a cool pair of friends who also fancied 'leaving home' (again) and we found a house on Hubert Place in Lancaster. The hot water tank used to boil over if we forgot to turn it off and the fridge worked by gas! It was cheaper than campus though, I had a huge room with a fire, a double bed and a big sash window, a garden, a cosy living room and my first ever pet, a mad stray cat who learned to love me. The front directly overlooked the City football field so we had no problem getting gentleman callers on a saturday afternoon, which led to some fun saturday nights....

We had neighbours, there were children, older people, cats and dogs. We discovered that about half the townies you see tromping about the place also have degrees and lives and look on their student neigbours with some amusement and sympathy. Lancaster is a tiny city with two massive universities and that has completely swung the demographic.

In my final year I moved into a local farmhouse with a bunch of friends. Since then we have all lived, literally all over the globe aned gone in completely diverse directions. But I treasure my memories of those days and our friendship - they have strengthened me in every way and the bond has never faded in me.

And some of us have floated back to Lancaster, because there are many good people here and you can live a good life.

Lancaster University has far more student accomodation now and it's tempting to just stay in the student package like a tourist on a break and dodge the stronger flavours of community life.

Will you get ripped off if you rent a house in town? It's very unlikely and if should actually happen it won't be for long or for much. Will you get ripped off if you stay on campus? You'll pay a lot more for a lot less. And you'll miss out on essential life skills you need to have mastered long before you go on to that big job-hunt in the sky.

Chat to your neighbours. They're not stupid, it's just that they think you're kids and they're trying to keep it simple. Say hi in the street. Nod and smile. they do it with each other all the time. Ask what day the bins are collected and win massive brownie points. They won't bite you and they won't want to take advantage cos they already know you're skint, busy and temporary. That way, when you have your big crazy party they'll be glad you're having a bit of harmless fun instead of calling the police to bust you all.

If you have a car learn to park it neatly like your neighbours park and always leave space for a fire engine to pass. Don't dump bags of rubbish in the back alleys for your neighbours to have to deal with because no-body else will.

Be a householder. Join the world. Make the rules. Be real.
