The next stage

Last Monday we have learned we would be able to get a mortgage before actually having a job. So, last Tuesday we started house-hunting! In the current market in Perth you have to be very fast. As soon as you see a nice house in the paper or internet, don't hesitate and have a look. There are a lot more buyers than sellers. So after driving by 40 or 50 houses (we lost count ;-), we found a house that absolutely appealed to us. We called the agent to arrange an inspection (have a look inside) to see if the inside was as good as the outside. Well, it did. So yesterday evening we started negotiations. After a counter offer or two this the agent called us this morning that our last offer was accepted by the buyers. So, since this morning we are the proud owners of a new house (not even one year old). Of course all of this subject to finance, but that should not be a problem.
To give you an impression of the house, have a LOOK HERE (Getting greener again, Ronald ??).
In time this link will probably disappear, but by then we should have pictures of our own, and replace the link.
