Our Home 132


We finally found 132. :)


Both Darling and I just put our signatures on a S&P Agreement and some other legal documents to our new place. Yes, finally!

We were searching for the right one since a year ago as Darling would still want to stay in Taman Midah, Cheras. I have also adjusted to this housing area and it would be good to stay very close to my parents-in-law. After all, my parents would only be 20 minutes away (with no traffic jam).

Being born and bred in Cheras itself, it would mean a lot for our children (in future) to also be born and bred here. Well, that's just a plan :)

I believe we found this house by luck and perhaps, it was really meant for us. The house agent told us that someone already place a deposit for the house but he had to let it go because there was an issue with the bank loan. It was when I saw the ad on the newspaper.

I called and made an appointment to view during the weekend. We liked the place and was so comfortable with the area right when we stepped into the house. Many people told us that this is very important.

So, I guessed nothing would be wrong. BUT, the agent told us that a few other people would also be viewing the house. :O

So, we waited for calls and gave the final price we would pay for the house. And we won the bid. =.=!!

The next step was to look for a lawyer to assist with the many legal processes and documents. We are lucky as my tuition student's father is a lawyer and his main business is dealing with legal house/building contracts. He's so good in what he does, shortening the process from the estimated 5 months to only 3 and even gave us a special rate :)

I tell you, now I know how much lawyers and architects earn! A LOT!

But anyway, so yes, we hope to start renovation soon.

It's still a long process to go with the renovation, purchasing of materials, choosing furnitures ... and yet still want to be with the budget. Let's hope everything turns out fine!


XOXO,
