Now I'm excited - Property to be inspected today!

Well, the last 12 hours have been s...l...o...w...

I've just been waiting for some news. The lawyer has been changing a few things on the contract, which I'm really grateful for - definitely worth getting a lawyer. (Now there's something you don't hear every day!)

In about two hours, it will be 10am in Florida, which means our new patch is going to be getting a quite undignified inspection - its plumbing will be peered at, its wires will be examined and its whole body will be felt and tested for defects. That poor condo is going to be feeling rather exposed, to say the least!

Anyway, hopefully she's spick and span and we'll be proud to sign her papers tomorrow morning! That is, of course, if we EVER get the HOA Disclosure, which is still on its way.

Patience is a virtue. Patience is a virtue. Patience is a virtue.

  3. Hi Reeco - I'm paying $65,300. The problem is that it has to be in cash - Australian banks won't lend for overseas investments as a rule and American banks aren't lending - full stop. So, if you've got the cash, you're good to go. If not, it might be an idea to pool what money you do have with a group and buy in together.
