Hi everyone, here’s another update…
Our house sold for 2 grand below asking in seven days. The horse farm was a bust, nice place but a couple of really dumpy :ohmy: neighbours so…
There are two properties that we are considering, one is across from lake Nosbonsing two acres with lake views and access across the road. Large farm-like garage, but the house, while being able to handle the family is small and I would have to add on right away. I could probably get a slab on grade foundation in by the winter but the framing of the addition would have to wait until next summer. This house would put me closer to work by about 10 minutes than my current drive.
The other is a wooded property about 1.5 acres with a small river (about 30 feet across) just across the road. (great for my kayak ) and there is a modern two car garage. The house is four bedrooms and really needs no work at the moment. But this one this puts me ten minutes further than my current drive.
Oh well, decisions decisions…the conditions on the offer on our current home will be lifted this Monday and when it’s official, we’ll choose, one or the other...less drive & construction or more drive and more relaxation...hmmm I think I know which way I'm leaning
Till next time, MTFBWUA…

Home is where the heart is as they say - id always say go for the property you love the most, not the one thats the nearest to work.
Look at it this way, you may change job and get work nearer to home sometime in the future
Its only ten minutes - not like an extra hour
Dont forget the spare room for all your jedi acquaintances to come and visit you
