We finally have an offer on our home. We've dropped in price, reasoning that we need the money to finish the build project. It frees up our capital to finish the relocatable and move on to the next project.
It's nail-biting time as we wait for the contract to go unconditional. If it goes through, we have just 15 days to find somewhere to go, pack and move.
Living in a Warehouse
We feel like we need a warehouse, or a very large space to store all our stuff. We've got fittings and decorations for the new house which we can't leave over there in case it gets stolen. We've got shop fit out for a planned business venture we might one day get off the ground. And, then there's us, the kitten and 3 goldfish.
A warehouse would enable us to play with some creative projects we just get to dream about: carving, building a container home (i.e. a home made out of renovated ship containers).
A big enough house, with the space we need will cost at least $470 per week to rent. To get huge space, we'll have to pay up to $670 (which we can't do).
None of the commercial spaces we've looked at have more than a tea room and toilet, and some carpeted office space.
We can't live in the relocatable, because there's still no power and water, plumping, ceilings or security. Neither will these things be in place by mid-September at the rate things are going.
But at least we may have finally sold our house, after 6 months on the market selling privately. Go us!
