I should have learned from last week not to take mum with me!
Stop one Saturday morning, Woollahra on the cusp of Bellevue Hill, a dream to live here. An older style building, top floor, views over Cooper Park. It is mortgagee in possession, renovations 65% complete, so unfortunate I can not purchase as the valuation wouldn't come up as $40,000 would need to be spent and of course valuers can not see the future value :-( x 1000. What do I do when I see a great buy? Call my ex-boyfriend (carpenter) and advise of the great potential purchase - I haven't spoken to T. in 4 months and no hesitation in picking up the phone when I have something commercial in mind...
Another pitfall, no parking - I want parking. No, I need parking. For this particular area I may have compromised, but driving to the next appointment a little spider crawled across my windscreen. That's what happens if you live that close to a park! I would be the local pest services best customer!
Property no. 2 for the day, on the other end of town, on the border of my favorite area. The agent asked me to take my shoes off! Has he ever watched SATC!?!? My shoes don't come off! I would understand if it's a multi-million dollar house with cream/white carpet, but no, dark carpet. Another one I'm not interested in. I'm narrowing my search criteria - can't live there...
Only one other property for the day - this one I had my heart set on. A 1 bedroom unit, with parking, balcony, the bathroom not off the bedroom, polished floors, 3 years old. There had to be something wrong with it. Yep. No. Window. In. The. Bedroom! Who the hell designed this thing!!!
