Quick move?

[ironphoenix]

Tomorrow, soul_diaspora are going to look very seriously at a townhouse in Kanata, and we might even sign. It's about a mile and a half from where I work.

It's a bit... scary? exhilarating? Both?

Advice welcome!

I don't think it's just the "townhouse in KANATA" (place I avoid like the plague and if I had to live there I'd be more agoraphobic than I am now!) part that's making me want to run... but this is the first time you are considering looking at a home and you are seriously looking at it tomorrow?

I'd pace it out, check other places, try what other people who have experience have to say (i.e., home inspectors, check out the area, consider how it's going to affect your social life, etc.).

Fools rush in, :P.

(But looking at places is awesome... the moving experience is crap!)

This: look at at least half a dozen places that fit your criteria if you can! You don't need to pull in the house inspector until you're at the offer phase, but a bit of informal (but in-person) data gathering is good :)

This is not actually as sudden as it appears. We've been researching and discussing the move for months--it's just not something we blogged about until now.
