Between the Holidays...

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas time :)

During the past weeks I have been a lazy blogger, as I must admit – apart from posting the Advent Calendar songs and occasional comments in your blogs. Of course I also posted on Facebook and Twitter.

Our house is now online for sale and so we are expecting a very busy and exciting year 2010!

Advent Calendar

I invite you to follow the Advent Calendar on my five blogs from December 1! On each day a Christmas song can be heard on one of my blogs. On which of the blogs the song for the particular day can be found will be published on my Twitter page. Have fun :)

A Successful Day!

Even though I’m rather tired I just wanted to write a little update.

At first we showed to the expert the apartment we wanted to buy. He took a close look at everything from the loft to the cellar. We had only hoped that he did not find too many faults with the condition of the house, but it was just the contrary! He showed us many things which had been renewed in the house since it had been built and which we as “ordinary people” had not seen. So afterwards we went to the town hall right away to talk with the people responsible for this to secure the apartment for us :)

Then we talked about the sale of our present house. The expert set an amount which we already had expected, so no unpleasant surprises here either :) With our share of this amount we would be able to buy the apartment and still have some money left for renovations.

Next Wednesday...

... we hope to get to know more about the issues regarding the house we sell and the apartment we would like to buy. We will meet with our expert - who had been here on Tuesday to take a look at the house - and will show him the apartment, hoping of course that he will tell us that it's worth it :) Also he will most likely tell us then how much money we can expect when selling the house.
