Hey all,
I just had to share some exciting news! After this weekend my house will finally be ready for sale! I purchased it about 3 and a half years ago with the intent to restore and renovate. It's a Queenslander over 100 years old, so you can imagine alot of hard work, time, money and blood sweat & tears (mostly my tears lol) has been invested into transforming my place from what it was, to what it is now. These past few years have certainly been a rollercoaster, it's strange how life can throw random curve balls at you which completely change everything. I can't complain though, I am only stronger & wiser because of it.
... So for one of the last times I am just about to head over there (on my saturday night mind you *sniff sniff*) ... to continue cleaning, touching up paint, organising my furniture etc. Sounds fun doesn't it!? lol I'm just glad this is it, finally this chapter in my life is done and I can move forward onto bigger and better things. The best part is I will finally have the time to do the things I've been longing to do! This house has restricted me in a few ways over the past 2 years, I discovered it's rather difficult to balance full time work/those important ppl in your life/gym and attempt to have a social life in amongst all of this. I will definately be making up for lost time! So to all my beautiful people out there, hope you like being smothered!
Accomodation wise I am sorted for the moment, I've moved back in with family which should be interesting to say the least hehe. Although, I am already thinking of what to do in the next year or two .. purchase a unit in the city, buy in the burbs or purchase acreage halfway between the switch & brisbane and build my dream house? I can't justify renting off someone you don't know any paying their mortgage! I guess time will tell, I think I will be happy to have atleast a year free with no mortgage or debt.
So I will be organsing to get atleast 4 appraisels done in the next week or so & then put it up for sale. Already I have agents knocking on my door, leaving notes in the letterbox wanting to come and see it. I have no idea how they know I'm selling it!
I will post some 'before' pics soon from when I first purchased the house in 2005. And once the house is all prettied up I will take some recent piccys and post them so you can all have a squiz if you like 🙂
Until then, ciao x
