Moving.

I met with a Realtor Darcy Simon Tuesday to discuss what should be updated to sell the house next spring, when all the military are shifted from base to base - some to Base Gagetown. It's pretty much everything that I thought, only more extreme.

I thought we'd have to add a rail to our deck but it turns out our deck wasn't properly made. It is unsafe and needs more supports. It should be raised a few inches. At east whomever fixes the deck can staighten our front stoop.

All the brass hardware that looks like it was added in the 80s was really just added because the construction company went for the cheapest knobs and lights should be replaced with brushed steel.

There were a few other minor things I had already been wanting to do, but didn't want to shell out the bucks. I should have gone ahead and done it to enjoy the improvements while living here. That's a lesson learned for the next house. We did install hardwood floors, which everyone loves. At least the house is practically brand new and should sell in a heartbeat.

Darcy Simon was a pro hockey player for eight years and he is a really amazing person on and off the ice. I am very pleased to have him as our realtor.
