Our Home on Borrowed Time?

In our previous post we put up some pictures of our lovely little home. Well actually in the last month or so, the house owner had decided to put it up for sale. So for the past few weeks we had been rather inconvenienced due to troops of strangers moving through during the inspection dates. It goes up for auction mid-September. Of course we'll rather not have to move for the time being given that we're looking to buy a house within the year ourselves. But what can you do. Anyway we're hoping that another investor ends up buying our current place (it's that kind of market here at the moment, most owner occupiers are priced out) and keeps us on as the tenants. That would definitely be the best outcome. But even if it's the worst case scenario and we have to move we'll be given two months notice, so no big drama. Anyway our home has now been listed on the Real Estate websites so it's a great chance to show you folks more pictures (this time some of the inside) courtesy of their professional photographer!

The furnishings are ours so try to pick out the IKEA cheapies! According to Forbes, Mr Ingvar Kamprad, aged 80 and founder of IKEA is currently ranked fourth richest man with a net worth of $33 billion. All from marketing particle board and laminate! Actually thought I'd read recently that he may have even ranked higher but apparently not, so Gates and Buffet can still breathe easy.
