- ... The offer to buy our apartment had to be in on November 30? They gave us 3 DAYS to see if we could come up with the $$$ before they started showing our suite ! The first people to look at it so far, left their GARBAGE COFFEE CUPS on my kitchen table ! The second people to look at it came in when we were setting up our Christmas tree over the weekend. They came in and left just as quick. "Wow, the carpet is really old ....." I can't wait to be out of here.
- ... There is a Federal Government program for first time home buyers? It will let you double your down payment, and in some cases WRITE IT OFF AS TAX DEDUCTIBLE ! We have an app't to talk to the Realtor who's site we found it on. We have enough for our downpayment, we figured it out over the weekend. Between RRSP money and a gift from a friend, we are ready to go ! Yay!

A big fat raspberry to the building owner...
Yay to you for being able to buy! It's the best thing I ever did. Sometimes it was tight money-wise (thank goodness for the Bank of Mom!) but at the end of the day, it's YOUR home, and it feels so good to be there. Just think, you can paint, and put in the flooring you like, and can pretty much do what you want! It's funny though, it took me 2 years to stop turning the volume down on the tv after 10pm - too many years of apartment living.
Thanks honey!! We still don't know how soon we'll have to move, but it won't be until the new year at least. I can see myself doing the same thing - telling the kids not to run in the hall because people are sleeping ... lol ..
