IKE A SHUSTER


I can't remember if I ever posted this but yes we named our child IKEA Shuster well its actually Ike A. Shuster but did not realise it at that time. Today i went to Ikea and am so glad they have one here! Th kids rooms and so many other things are sorted! I think its alot better than Mr. Price home, wonder why they have not hit SA yet.

So we have found a home... the agent had to nag, cajole, beg(?) the landlord, its about 30% less than his asking price and a month ago he turned down someone paying S$24k more per year. Well the landlord turns out to be the same as the one renting out the humoungous 10k sq ft place in Upper thomson and has several properties on Sentosa, all available at the same time - NOW.

They are very nice people though, seemed down to earth, when we went to visit their home to sign the Tenancy Agreement, they were at their mom's and all lived in a few terrace houses in the same neighbourhood tho they plan to move in together somewhere on Holland Grove are to a big 9,800 sq ft place. We'll invite them to shabbat.

So the house? its in a really nice area, easy for the kids and loren and the city access, all the other agents said we got a really good deal, the house is not fancy or anything (both our neighbours are) but we have a pool, ample space for playroom, guest room, our trampoline etc. Am so glad this process is over and I took this morning to reconnect with some of my friends in the city and walk thru IKEA to check out what we can get there.

Next week.... the move...
