We had some feedback, on our last house viewing on Wednesday evening. They were in and out pretty quickly, but it seems they loved the house...their problem was with the garage. It's an original build, so dates back to the late 60's/early 70's. Anybody knowing anything about buildings around that time, is aware the old roofs were asbestos panels. Which is fine for what I use it for...basically storing crap and tools, but they wanted to use the garage for storing vintage clothing, which seems completely backwards to me when there's a perfectly functional loft space that won't leave the clothes covered in mildew.
Hell, for a house on the market for 145k, it seems silly to be put off with a 2k garage. Put an offer in and I'll even consider replacing the garage roof out of my pocket...but then again common sense was never my strong point.
We'll find the right person for the house, and hopefully they'll love it. It's going to be tough to sell it to a stranger after it being in our family for some 22-23 years, but I don't really have any control over that and I need to let it go. For us to make this move, we have to sell the house, it's as simple as that, I have to put emotion aside and remember the positives we're going to take from this;
1. We'll be in a place where we want to be.
2. We'll have a decent deposit to buy a place of an equivalent value over in Canada.
3. We'll have enough to replace our vehicles and furnish the new place.
Plus anywhere I can drink a Keith's in the pool is all right by me!
