At the moment Mr J and I are sharing. We live in an apartment with two others, but we are lucky to have an ensuite and a large master to ourselves. Plus the benefit of very cheap rent. As I am studying, I have tried to be patient.
So we bought off the plan. A brand new eco-awesome apartment, due to be completed mid 2012.
But I became impatient. Well “we” became impatient 
So we started perusing the property market once again. We were conservative, … yes a one bedroom apartment will do. No need for anything fancy, just something that is a good investment, with a good rental return later.
And then … Mr J is told of a two-year old, two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-carspace apartment. The apartment of two’s. It is not listed (shhhh), but the vendor is interested in selling. It was previously listed under the current market value, so we tentatively offer a few thou under that.
And … First offer = accepted!
I have gone from YAY wedding planning, to OMG shiny new home. Must have shiny new things for shiny new home(!)
It’s the first ‘Us’ thing, so I think I am entitled to a little bit of (sensible purchases) nesting – yes?
So I look forward to posting any nesting decisions for our soon-to-be NEW home!
What are your home essentials? (e.g. what do I have to buy right now?!)
