Another day, another realtor
The day before yesterday, I got an unexpected phone call from Yoshii-san at Relocation House who had faxed me a floorplan a couple of weeks ago. I had made an inquiry about a house through one of the realty databases on the Internet and now Yoshii-san was following up to see if I was interested in seeing the place. I couldn't recall exactly which plan it was, and I couldn't quickly lay my hands on it (the pile of faxes on my desk is about three centimeters deep). It was easier to arrange an appointment with him than to try to explain my predicament. Goodness knows I've seen plenty of bad houses; if this was among them, it wouldn't matter.
Luckily for me, it wasn't bad at all. In fact, this out-of-the-blue place turned out to be surprisingly nice. It has reached the top of my list, in fact. Admittedly, that's not saying much, but this place was good. It had a nice blend of Western and Japanese tastes, it was large enough, bright and sunny. It isn't quite as excellent as the current house, but I could live there happily enough.
There are a few more places to visit in the next week or so. After that, I'm hoping that I will be able to make a decision and get this move out of the way.
