Adventures in house hunting

[mousme]

The buyers who were supposed to come by the apartment today never showed up, which blew a giant hole in the middle of when I was supposed to be sleeping. I am displeased, but the real estate agent assures me this will not happen again. Time will tell.

I am going back to see the place with which I fell in love tomorrow afternoon. I am taking the Maternal Unit with me, because she has bought and sold lots of houses over her lifetime and I trust her experience in these matters. Her opinion won't make or break the decision to buy, but I want another pair of eyes there in order to potentially dump a bucket of ice water on my head if I need it.

I am about 90% sure that I will be making an offer by this time tomorrow, although that doesn't preclude my continuing to visit other houses during the negotiations. I really hope that no one else buys the house from under me, and that the current owners and I will be able to reach an agreement that's suitable for all.

The short version of the story is that I'm trying very hard to remain level-headed and objective and calm about this whole thing, but really all that's happening is that I have "HOUSE!!!" \o/ \o/ \o/ "HOUSE!!!" on loop in my head. ;)

Buy that one.

Isn't it gorgeous? You have to come see it as soon as possible (when you get your passport). If I can, I'll be buying it. The only thing that will prevent me from buying it is a big hidden defect that someone else (someone not me) will spot, or if it gets bought out from under me. I'll likely be making an offer tomorrow.

Also, 12 days!!!

How was Camp?

Camp! wasn't festival this year as the Princelings were with me. I've been doing it in weekends and some friends have a seasonal camp there. It's been delightful. Will be good to see you!

Camp with the Princelings sounds wonderful. You'll have to tell me all about it when I see you.
