First-time buyers Goodness and Tobi have been close friends since they first met at work in Nigeria in 2019
Two best friends who originally met in Nigeria have now bought their first homes in the UK - and they're living on the same street. Goodness, 32 and Tobi, 29, first met in 2019 whilst they were working as accountants, and soon went from colleagues to close friends.
"Immediately when we moved to the UK we knew that at some point we would want to buy a home. But it was a case of looking when we had enough savings," Goodness told the Manchester Evening News. “I was already renting on this development, so every day when I was coming home from work I would have a look at the new houses coming up for sale. I liked the development and I liked the area so I thought why not enquire about buying."
The ladies and their partners both chose three-bed detached houses on Millbank Lock, which is located on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal near to the city centre and on the edge of the countryside, with prices starting from £299,995. The first-time buyers have each settled into their homes with their families and say that living on the same street is 'perfect' and has brought them, and their children, even closer.
