Do you know what you really want in terms of property-type (detached, semi etc), no of rooms, size of garden, location, price range, etc? If not, then perhaps you need to define your criteria before you look any further. If you are clear about your requirements, and have seen a number of properties that meet them, then perhaps you are being too fussy.If, on the other hand, you are simply not finding anything which meets your criteria, then you should go on looking - unless of course you decide to modify your requirements. (Some people think that the worst thing you can do is to "fall in love" with a property, without careful assessment of its practical pros and cons. Like other forms of love at first sight, it can end in tears.)
