House Update

You may already know that we're buying a new house. Unfortunately, we need to sell our condo before we can buy the house we want. The good news is that we showed our condo on Saturday morning and things went really well! The lady loved it and said she was going to talk to the bank today (Monday) to see if she can afford it. Hopefully we'll hear from her this week.

But, even if we don't, we have an open house on Sunday, so hopefully that will bear some fruit, too. In any event, things are looking a lot better than they were a few weeks ago. And we've done it all (so far) without the "help" of a realtor.

Speaking of which, the realtor of the people from whom we're buying called on Sunday to give us a hard time and get an "update" on how things were going. Foretunately I had the good news I mentioned above and was able to fend her off for a while. I don't like her. I'm sure I'll write up a nice article about her once the deal is done, but for now I'll bite my tongue.

So if all goes as well as I hope, we'll be moving in the last half of January. Not the best time to be moving in Canada, but at least the movers will be cheap!
