well we hit our next roadblock yesterday. who knew that putting a house on our acreage could be even more complicated than it already has been? we've been working on this house for years, and in that said time, houses have doubled in price. when we moved back to calgary in 2003, we almost bought a townhouse in the NW for $180 000. two bedroom, 2.5 bath, double attached garage, small yard, pets allowed.... we were advised against the purchase because the "market is too high, now is not the time to buy". well, that same townhouse is now nearly half a million dollars. 'nuff said.
in any case, we have found an affordable bi-level house that we both liked, and, with a little updating (the green shag has to go!), would be a great place for us. i am sincerely hoping that the deal goes through.....stay tuned.
