We're moving. For some time my wife and I talked about moving to a
house or an apartment on the ground floor. Our sons are very active,
like running around, jumping and making plenty of noise. We're always
concerned about the impact on our neighbors, specially the ones who
live directly below us. Another positive change would be having some
external space for them to play during the warmer seasons of the
year.
In December an apartment one block away from ours went up for rent.
On the ground floor, with a large garden. The downside? The cost.
We decided not to look into it, but little by little our curiosity
grew and in the beginning of the month we scheduled a visit.
Needless to say we really liked it. It checked all the boxes and the
two negative points are (again) the higher rent and the lack of a
collection point for recyclables in the building (there is a
collection point in the city, but we will have to drive there every
week or so; our current building has a collection room on site, we
only need to take the stuff down to that room).
We applied for the rent and got accepted. We gave the proper notice
to our current landlord. Now we're getting things moving and planned.
There is so much to do.
