Condo Part IV

The condo association has waived me needing to meet with them based on references from the rental company I am currently with. So the offer was put in today. Made me a little queazy to think of how much money it will be but that's okay. You can't take it with you when you die so I might as well spend it now to give myself the security renting does not have. Hopefully they accept it.

John yes the cats will enjoy the sun room :) there is even a small cement patio off the living room which isn't on the floor plans. Since this unit is on the ground floor I will have that.

Bee bee, yes to painting it my own colours :) I am already thinking what I want to do with the place, which is quite dull now in terms of paint. I think it will be a good place to live and yes friendly, quiet neighbours. Hopefully.

Seth, yes in Garrison Woods.

Nathan, thanks!

Condo Part III

Upon reflection I am not feeling so negative about the condo being in a 55+ building. It's big and nice and really well set up and suited for me. I wasn't thrilled when I saw the floor plan but it's laid out in a way that I need and I like. I will be comfortable there. I could even see myself being happy there.

Let's hope now that my offer gets accepted. It's an outrageous amount of money and that makes me nervous. But will be worth it and give me a sense of security that I don't have renting.

Stay tuned...Condo part IV might be coming this evening as I continue to ponder lol

We couldn't get any pictures of the inside because the couple vacating it made some objections. They were so unpleasant (the relator was cringing afterward as they were not expected to be home for the showing). They are moving to Ontario to be near their grandchildren...the condo went on the market last week and my mom's friend who works real estate called her with the tip...which I am glad about. But I am heading to Starbucks in a bit and will see about getting some exterior shots.
