My wife and I just bought my first home this week. The market is fucking brutal. You think you're getting in early to view a new listing and there are ten other realtors' cards already on the kitchen table. Made the highest offer? Fuck you. This guy out of Vancouver offered market price with zero conditions. House is old as hell and really should have had an inspection. OH WELL! SUCK A DICK! 🤷

We wound up getting exactly what we had been waiting for. House was on the market for 13 hours, we were the first to make an offer, sellers accepted almost immediately. Inspection went well. Detached home in a cozy little cul-de-sac. Lush back yard with a high, solid fence. Dude, I can't fucking wait. I've been in a townhouse with a back 40 that looks like the dormatories of a Russian mining complex.
