Hi guys,
I've been reading this forum for a while now but this is my first post.
So.... Hubby and I have just bought my father in law's investment property off of him. We are selling our 4x2 3 year old house that we built to basically move into a 30 year old run down dump to rennovate. Wait for it.... all in the heat of summer in WA, with no air-con AND....a brand new baby! We are getting it for a bargain price though.
I'm 31 weeks pregnant at the moment so when I say 'brand new' I really mean it! What the hell are we thinking! Hahaha. The house is an absolute dump but livable with massive potential on a subdividable block, 5 minutes from the beach. We have good family support from both sets of parents who are all willing to chip in and help us out. My mother in law also lives a few houses up so cooking, bathing etc when Kitchen and bathroom is out of use for a small time wont be a major issue. The plan is to basically gut as much as we can as soon as we move in. Carpets need ripping up straight away and we will live with concrete floors for a few months through summer. Laundry and kitchen are first on the list to do, i'm really excited but very afraid of the unknown!!!
Please tell me we aren't insane!!!!
