Up for Sale

Mum's been selling the house for a while, nearly a year now, 3 people have agreed to buy it, but have pulled out for various reasons (some reasonable some not) having gone quite a way down the process.

However today (just coz I was talking about houses being for sale with a friend of mine who had her home valued) I looked for it on-line.

In many respects it didn't seem odd looking at it on-line for the first time. Looking back an hour later (have closed that window) and it feels slightly odd.

Am not sure whether it's odd coz its something I've known for 30 plus years being on the internet or whether it's coz I'm not sure some of the photo's do it justice.

When I sold my own place a couple of years ago it didn't seem so odd (possibly because I saw it for real every day). I'd spent nearly as much time in that place as I had at the family home, so I can't see it as being a time thing.

In many respects I will be sorry when it sells (no way I could ever afford it), but at the same time I know that these things happen, it's only property and there will be the stuff inside that will be passed onto my sister and myself, which are more of the emotional connections.
