A few posts ago I mentioned that my wife and I had brought a house, well, last weekend we finally moved it. YAY!!! We manage to move pretty much everything in one day which was a pretty good effort, 3 cars and 2 trailers.

The only problem we had was getting our phone connected. The order for the connected went wrong somewhere, not sure if it was my fault or Telstra’s fault, but I needed a wall socket installed inside the house, but Telstra only activated the phone line. Anyway, I tried to do the socket myself, but could not find the dial tone, so called Telstra and they said there was a fault on the line. The tech installed a new line from my house to the pit outside, and I asked him if he could put on a new socket, and he said ok. So I got it all connected for less then if it was done in the beginning.

Other then that, my wife and I now have the task of unpacking all the boxes and setting this house up. I love owning my own home!!

My wife and I brought our first house!! Yay Woohoo!!

It’s not a new house, probably about 40-50 years old, I’m not exactly sure yet, but we are both really excited about it. Now we just have to pay the loan back.

Anyway, it’s a nice small 3 bedroom home with a single car garage out the back. There is decent back yard space, and it has a brand new bathroom, and kitchen. So all the work it done, and we can just move in, which suites our busy lifestyle.

There are a few little things to do on the outside like re-coating the roof, concrete in front of the garage, and put up a fence to fence of the back yard to keep people out, and kids in.

Here are some photos of the house. They were taken from the real estates website.
