Wish everyone in the same boat all the very best of luck

Our problem appears to be that we designed the house to a more British style and it's not getting the interest that it should because Canadians have no taste or sense of style

Why don't you Canadian'ise it then, or are the changes you made structural?

Re: offer on house

We would be in the same position as we are going to put our house in the market hopefully by the end of the end of the month. But what would be the reason why we are selling our house? should we lie and tell them that we are going south or north instead of migrating?
