Lol unfortunately I've already found somewhere to live and put a deposit down, otherwise we'd be sorted! We've found out we're going to be working at the same company, which is pretty cool!

Yep, it's good to have someone in the same boat.

I personally find accommodation difficult to check out remotely, so I guess I'm going to look when I get out there. Find the right place in the right location, hopefully.

Saying that, I have been looking online to hopefully make some viewing appointments. Unfortunately Kijiji.ca blocks non Canadian IP addresses, so it's impossible to contact people on that site.

It's great that you've found someone who is moving at the same time as you. I didn't realise that Kijiji did that. Try using www.anonymouse.org, then typing in the Kijiji address from there. And have you tried Craigslist?

Hopefully it'll be done with soon.

I'll be working for a video games company, I'm really looking forward to it!

No mate I'm moving the whole massive distance of about 300 yards :confused: Thats the trouble with staying in a newer subdivision , they are on phase 3 now and the wife is seeing bigger and better being built and she wants one :blink: I capitulated early as if the rumours are right by the end of the summer, there will be another 15% on the value
