Default oh dear,found a house-may have to sacrifice the rs500

been looking at houses for a while but havent been able to find something that is suitable for my needs.
i have been looking to find one with suitable parking for 6-8 cars with a garage so i could move my car sales business from the unit i currently rent(dead money) and work from home concentrating on just car sales and knocking the used spares on the head and just do small jobs from home as i have a mate with a garage who does jobs for me cheap so i could use him more.

just been to look at one that we have driven past virtually every day and not realised its potential.i can park 8 cars there without upsetting anyone and it has a decent ish garage.

now its reality check time though as we curently only have a small mortgage so havent had to really worry about money,but we want a better house in abetter area for the kids,which this is.
so now the question is do i keep the rs500 or sell it the cash would come in handy and get a sapph which is not the end of the world.

also now have to decide wether its worth it to knock the used parts on the head and the workshop and can i just live on car sales(which to be fair is probably 85% of my work now).i would be using the £400 rent,£150 rates,£350 wages to the lad who helps(!) me out at mo,plus elec bills per month towards the new house.

i would be getting some cash back via the sale of all my parts and garage equipment,which would help,but i have always said if i needed to i wouldnt hesitate to sell the rs500 if i needed to.i suppose you have to make these sacrifices if you want a better standard of living.

looks like ill be talking the the financial advisor this week
