My feeling is hurt, you don't want to be my neighbour! LOL, just toying with your emotion.;)

I can see you moving, with value of the property, the cost of the garage/suite and all the jacking around with Saannich, I'd move as well.

Nice shop, and there's room for wall hugger door openers.

Not surprising that place had an accepted offer

Don't really know the rules there, but around here, if there are conditions on the accepted offer, you should be able to make an offer without conditions......

The same applies here too but the realtor said she didn't expect any issues with lifting the conditions.
We will bide our time as we're not really ready to sell just yet.

No properties are really sold until the closing - that's when the money and the deed change hands

Oh I know... I was drooling. 14 ft ceilings with 1200 sq ft about all ready to be finished as a suite.

I always tell the wife our dream home is a one bedroom , one bath house ..................with a 24 car garage . She says we would outgrow it in no time . And I tell her I could add onto the garage whenever needed . ;)

How high was that house and garage above what looked like a flood plain behind it? Maybe the boats were in the garage for a reason?!

It's definitely not on a flood plain. Boats a super common here because there's water all around us, basically 20 mins or so in any direction is salt water.

I assumed the boats were for other locations. But I could not tell the elevation of the house from the background water/grass area.
