Almost Friday!

Hey all, I hope you are well! I'm very glad it's Friday tomorrow :-) Will have another weekend of working but it's all worth it, and frankly, it is quite fun once you're at it.

Did you know we heard from the estate manager the other day? We spoke to him last Friday to make an offer on the apartment, and he was going to call the owners and call us back in the beginning of this week. This he didn't, so Daniel phoned him yesterday to ask how things went.

- Well, you know, I... I have been at my summer house this weekend and was going to call them when I was on a break, and I've been tidying and fixing in the garden and so, you know, and noooo, I haven't had the chance to call them yet...

We were like
Really?! Who IS this loser HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So he promised us he'd give the owner a phonecall today, and not too long after he called us back to say they've agreed to sell (we offered them a lower bid than what they had first said) at a price we could both be happy with. Soooo, that means WE GOT IT! The apartment we fell in love with! Now we just have to come to terms with OUR estate manager, wohoo!

This, in addition to Daniel getting good news from his accountant, called for a celebration of some sort so off we went to Texas Longhorn for a nice meal and then home to drink CHAMPAGNE! Awesome evening :)

Var tuffa när ni förhandlar med mäklaren... ta gärna dit någon mer så att de kan bjuda mot varandra vad gäller mäklararvodet... vi betalade 2,5 %. Jag vet inte hur det ligger till i Stockholm, men det går ALLTID att pressa en mäklare från hans första bud :=))
