Not to be deterred by his recent difficulties in securing a suitable property, Davo has:
- Attended a mortgagee auction for a property in South Auckland that he knows well, used to attend meetings at, and always thought was very well located.
- Entered into the abyss that is the post-auction-de facto-tender-process (the property was passed in at auction).
- Waited patiently (whilst tearing his hair out) whilst the mortgagees tried to screw everyone around for as long as possible, tried to circumvent the agents (despite them having a sole agency - duh!) and generally tried to avoid taking the loss they were going to have to take.
- After the umpteenth deadline for a decsion to be made being passed, surprisingly got the call to say "Congratulations".
- Kinda half arranged insurance. Tricky because there's no valuation and it's empty, so the insurers don't like it at all.
- Opened and nearly finished an entire bottle of champers, (after picking the kids up from daycare, feeding them dinner, giving them swings and spins, bathing them, giving them medication, telling them he loves them and putting them to bed - with the help of my wonderful wife of course)
- Typed this post.
So just the settlement then... should be no problems there right? What could possibly go wrong?
Seriously, I am happy with this one, and think it will settle and go well. I'll keep you posted.
