Quite possible the strangest deal I've ever done.There is now a "Sold" sticker plastered over the "For Sale" sign outside this block of apartments. It appears I have purchased one.
I am, apparently, a home-owner.
Dear God, what have I done? ;)
It all happened so quickly - after I had stopped caring about home ownership and resigned it to the "Eh...manyana!" pile.
I guess I should post the story in more detail, but for now basic rundown is this - apartment in Spring Hill, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, small balcony but quite liveable, 4-5 years old, a good price (ie, less than I had been planning to borrow), body corps paid up until next March, tenants paying enough rent to cover my mortgage while I decide what the hell to do with my life. ;)
I will post more later, but for now, let me leave you with a photo of the other groovy thing that happened this week:
Who's that sexy star? Well, that's me, but the bloke is Vinnie Jones, out here filming "The Condemned" with none other than Stone Cold Steve Austin.I went out for the media tour of the set on Wednesday 31 May, and despite there not being any official photo session, I managed to grab Vinnie quickly and got my fabulous fellow journo Jasmine to snap a quick shot. Thank God you can't see my double chin!
Cheers for now all! Natalie.
