Casa Impian

26 July 2008

I forgot to blog about one of the biggest thing that has happened so far in my 'boo-tiful' life....I and Lissa will soon have a home to call our OWN! Yup, our condo, apartment (whatever they want to call it!) is finally ready, and after the renovation works is done, we can soon move in!!!

In 2005, we invested in an apartment located between Mont Kiara and Segambut called Changkat View. It is a 4-blocked 25-storey condominium with 24 hour security, pool, gym bla-bla-bla and we came across it while house hunting that year. Then the last few units of block B was on sale and we were impressed with the showroom layout. Although for us the price was rather steep, (RM190k) but in that area, we believed that was the cheapest, plus it is located between Sri Gombak and Damansara....so we ended up purchasing a 3-roomed unit on level 5. (the higher you go, the deeper you'll have to dig in your pockets!)

So, earlier this year, we (finally!) received the keys, done all the defect tracking, found a suitably priced contractor, chose wall colors and cabinet finishings and pin pointed where to put additional power points in the house all the other 'standard' new home owner's routine. Probably by next month or two, Insya'Allah, we will be able to move in to our very own, micasa!!!

Wow...what a milestone in life! And what a PROCESS we had to go through!!!!

Will keep posted on the move in, house warming etc.....
