We are listing!!!

The housing market in Saskatoon is out of control, bidding wars are happening on almost every house, houses are going for $10,000-$40,000 more than asking price, and Wayne and I have decided to join in on the fun. We have decided to list our house and it goes on the market on Thursday.... AHHHH!!! It is SOOO exciting but so scary.

This is the first house that we have ever sold and man there is SOOOO much work that goes into getting a house ready for sale. Not only does the house have to be clean but it has to be SPOTLESS, plus all the clutter has to be gone. Okay that's not quite true, we have been in houses where you don't even want to take your shoes off let alone buy it. So for the price that we are trying to get and since I can't stand people seeing my house when it isn't at it's best we are going the spotless route.

Yesterday, I cleaned for 6 hours and got the main floor perfectly clean. Now my house is not normally spotless (I have 2 kids here that help keep things "real") but it isn't a disaster either. Today I have the upstairs to do which shouldn't take as long as there aren't as many cupboards to clean out, and then tomorrow the basement will be attacked with Wayne's help.

The house goes on the market Thursday morning, and it closes on Saturday night, so by Sunday we should have a sold house.:) So wish us luck on the sale of our house, and hopefully everything will go smoothly.
