I've lost count - no idea how many places I've lived now... So here's the deal. I spent the last three years in Ottawa - it was great, but I missed Vancouver the whole time, so as soon as a job opportunity came up in Van, I jumped on the chance to move back. So here I am, back in Vancouver. Which is GREAT. But this whole transition thing has hit a few snags. My job hasn't started yet and the start date keeps getting delayed...and I'm eating up my savings living life waiting for it to start. And I found a place. In a
great neighborhood - the neighborhood I wanted actually. It has A LOT of potential, but it's in a serious ghetto phase right now and it's more than I wanted to spend, but finding something affordable that will let you have cats is downright impossible in this city, so as soon as I found something that had potential and said yes to cats, I jumped on it - even though it's a major diamond in the rough and will keep me from paying off my debts that much longer.
So it begins...the first 'before' sneak peaks above and below...my cabin in the city.

Wish you a great start in Vancouver. Hopefully you can begin soon your new job. And what I have seen as far of your new home: wonderful!
Joc,
I can't wait to visit you, let's say next summer. Wanting to sit on your patio sipping beer/wine under a HOT sun.
All the best and much love,
e.
i'm excited for you. :) spending so much of your savings sucks, but remember that it's just money, and this is your life. that's what its for. and moving is always the best thing to do with your life ;)

Looks like a great place to love.
This looks awesome! is this a rental apt, or are you trying to buy it?
You said "before pics"... does that mean you'll be redo-ing the place once your job starts and things settle down? I'd love to see what you've envisioned for it.
Sounds a little like the neighbourhood I am living in here in the TO, but I'm sure yours is way cooler. Love the look of your new place, you will make it look fabulous.
