The place right across the street from me with 3/4 acre in the ALR , 1300 sqft house and a 400 sqft detached shop just sold for $360,000, Your not far off I'm sure because you are closer to Salmon Arm. Wow.. a far cry from what you bought it for. Nothing like almost 3 times-ing your money in 2 years just for living in a place. Reminds me of our friends who moved from Abbotsford to a small town in Alberta. Missed on many mortgage payments could hardly afford to live, sold their place and made close to $200,000. They bought a 5 acre lot, built their house, shop, paid off all debt and still had $40,000 left over after everything was paid for, and now he is doing what he loves to do, autobody work from home.
Good for both of you, I hope everything works out smooth and the timing is perfect to make the transition. To bad we will be loosing a Salmon Arm vw member though.
