cycling and house buying

[warneral]

Someone else was willing to pay more than asking price and we weren't. Oh well I also love the bike route I have here. I still dream of living in that town Maybe it will fall through with the other buyers LOL

Sorry to hear about the failed house bid.

But be patient, look around.

Well, fingers crossed might be having a condo near a bike path in town ...only geez, a block away.

Lots of running around over the next few days on financing, etc. Oh well, I'm hoping if things don't work out in a few years, people will love the location, the 2 balconies (I wasn't wanting this but part of design feature) and the fact it's near parkland, river and bike/pedestrian path that runs over 25 kms., that the place will appreciate in value. It's very popular ....joggers all the time, etc.

This has been true in some other areas that are neare bike-pedestrian paths with parkland/green space, that I am familiar in bigger cities of Toronto and Vancouver.

And I will still be able to walk to work..when it's too cold in winter to bike..in a protected elevated indoor walkway. I really sort of wonder about my sanity...but I am particular about location, location, location for my needs.

No, I didn't look at many places. Well, actually only 4 others. I know this area....it's only 3 blocks away from where I live now and already have explored and used stuff/services not too far away. I joked with dearie, if we would be biking over some of our possessions over. If it's not raining/nor snow, we could handle all the clothing, small appliances, food, some dishes, a few books....
