Housing Update
Chatted with our realtor Chris yesterday. It was a good little chat, he told me that he was surprised and disappointed that our Condo had not sold yet. I found that to be a cute and naïve sentiment. I on the other hand am not surprised at all. It’s sad to say that but its true. I KNOW however that the condo will sell, in it’s own time.
Getting back to Chris the Realtor. I really like him, he is about my age and he seems really nice and genuine. If I knew him under different conditions I could see being friends with him. It’s a nice way to feel about your realtor, considering all the times I have had issues with people in his profession.
Today Chris is taking a partner of his to our house to see if there is anything she can think of that we can do to help our house sell. I pretty much know what she is going to say. Fix the bumpy carpet, fix the paint (Saturday), get the carpet cleaned. What I would like to do is make part of the sale that we will fix the paint and the carpet and have the place professional cleaned.
On other house related news… I was up till 2:45 last night with a clogged toilet. The worst part was walking into the bathroom and my bare foot hitting the bath mat with a loud *Sploosh*. I was amazed at how much water that thing could hold as it was really heavy. I checked the carpet outside of the bathroom this morning and it was only slightly damp. Last thing I need is mold growing down there. I will have to break out the fans tonight and make sure its all super dry.
