On Monday night we got our usual call from Bob, our real estate agent, and since I thought it was his normal Monday night update on the housing market I didn't call him back. I figured, well we only have a week left on this real estate contract before putting plan B in effect (renting the house) so I'll just call him back in the morning. The next morning he called me at work and to my complete surprise, we had an offer!
After we made a quick counter offer and it was accepted we did a muted jump for joy, muted because last time we had an offer it was quickly dashed by our uniquely crappy condo documents. This time, after another initial scare over the documents, the other conditions were smoothly removed from the contract. Now our house is officially sold!
Time for the flurry of activity to begin. We have so much to do and less than a month to do it in as the possession date on the house is March 27. Luckily most of our stuff is already in storage and house is pretty empty. Tommorrow we head out to buy our backpacks, shoes and some other sweet gear and I am so excited.
Look-out Graham, we are on our way! First stop Vancouver!
