We have placed an offer!

We saw it yesterday and liked it a lot, but it does need some more updating. It has been very, very well maintained over the years. We could see our family functioning in the space. The elementary school is literally about 200m away (K-7). The gardens, while more than we would have done on our own, are gorgeous! We crunched some numbers last night and found that if we could get it for 335 G at the most, we could make it work. That would mean the owners would need to drop their price by about 14 G. Last night, the owners dropped the asking price by 10 G!

We went and saw it again today and felt such peace there. It's not perfect, it is not completely to our taste, but we can see how it can easily, over time be made to suit us. It's totally livable in the meantime, and, as I mentioned before, immaculately maintained.

The owners should get back to us by 10 pm. Hopefully, they will counter under 335 G and we will accept.

I'll keep you posted.
