update on my life

[Bambi]

after 14 months on the market our house has sold.

and because life works like that they want the closing on July 27. So we are frantically working at being moved. Mind you, I am not complaining - I am so anxious to move onto the next phase of our life that I would have done it in a week. But I may be somewhat absent for the next few weeks. But I will be back, I promise

oh and you all are invited to the open house

Congrats B!
I too sold my condo (1 month on the market) last week and bought a new townhouse this week. Hopefully if all goes well, I will have a new home and 4 legged family member by the end of August!!

Congrats Bambi,

WOW this seems to be a forum wide phenomena, I just sold my house and bought a condo and my closing date for this house is August 30th and I take possession of my condo next friday leaving me 6 weeks to move. I lucked out and bought a 5 bedroom condo (until I found or I should say my wife found it) I had no idea there was such a thing as a 5 bedroom with three levels and two full living rooms which one will be used as my studio which is something I have been craving. It also comes with 3 full bathrooms. I can no longer do the work my house needs anymore so we found a great deal and I closed the condo with a 15 day closing as it was sitting empty. I know Casil just moved, yesterday I finalized everything. I am so glad I have the 6 weeks to move it will make my life so much easier. Nice to see everyone is making changes and improving their lives. And on top of the 5 bedrooms there are another two rooms we can use as bedrooms or game room or whatever. Still having most of my recording studio still in tact made the sale of my house easier than I thought and it sold over asking. I knew it was coming but waited until everything cleared, inspections done and I met with the lawyer yesterday and its a lock and load, woohooo. I doubt my kids will be leaving anytime soon one moved back and we sort of adopted a kid a few years ago, long story I won't bore you with.

WTG AL! I had no Idea there was such a thing as a 5 bedroom Condo either...I think have townhouse envy as mine only has 3!
I had the contractor go through my place this weekend past and we are completely gutting the kitchen and bathroom, putting in new doors, flooring and much more. He has a month to get it done before I move in so it won't be so stressful this time with me living there like it was when we redid this place. I got such a great deal on it, I can afford to personalize it and really give it a good fix up before moving in.
I guess fora few of us the end of August will be moving day!

Great idea Casil, better to do the construction if at all possible before you move in.

And I missed the open house at bambies, I think we should all show up, lol.

Congrats bambi casil and A.L.!
My wife and I went though this just 2 months ago so we know what a stress reliever this is when property does get sold.

[Bambi]

AN open house I feel for you Bambi, it was one thing I was very, very fortunate not to have. Good luck with it hope someone falls in love and buys it.
