Comme il faut

Bit stunned by the pace of what’s happening.  We signed the forms with the realtor, pictures of our condo have been taken (yesterday) and today we have 3 realtors going though.  We are packing boxes every day, tossing stuff like crazy (anyone need a pair of lady’s inline skates? Anyone?) and have rented a storage locker near the new place to put everything we won’t need for the next six months.

The price we are asking is $525,000 for the condo.  If we’d sold a year ago we likely could have asked for more, but the market has softened since then, and let us not be greedy. It’s above the city assessment. C’est la guerre.

And speaking of the French having a word for it…..check out this last word in garage makeovers in Bordeaux.  It is tres chic, and although I don’t get the bean bag in the sitting area, everything looks great.  Perfect for a pied a terre.

OK, enough with the French words.  I have exhausted my vocabulary, anyway.

Thanks to the Smallworks blog for putting us onto the French makeover.
