All Conditions Met

Yesterday afternoon I signed off on the last condition on my offer to purchase.  My lawyer reviewed the status certificate and attachments on the condo and gave me the green light.  The condo's expenses and budget balance, and they're growing the reserve fund to meet expected costs over the next 10 years or so.  In order to do this my condo fee will increase each year by less than $5 -- yey!

So, the house is officially sold to me!  We close on February 23rd, so the packing now begins.

Since I'm moving into a roughly 370 sq ft space I've really had to be creative with my furniture.  My Dad and I did an Ikea run this week and I purchased about $900 worth of new pieces.  The photo below is one of their entertainment centres, which I will double as a dresser.  Once the insert doors are placed inside the boxes, voila, a dresser.

This weekend's agenda: couch/sleeper shopping!
