Settlement for my unit takes place at 2:30pm today. Unfortunately, due to the extra-long weekend, the money won't get processed until next Tuesday. But I have a savings account all ready for it! :)

It's a little bit scary, actually. I mean, I've had that place for around 10 years, and while I only lived in it for 6 months (and had a horrible time with tenants for the first five years) it's been a big staple of my life for all that time. Selling it and moving on is a bit like, well, growing up.

It's funny. I already did this when I was 18 - moving out of home to another city - and then again when I was 21 - buying a house with some friends. And yet again when I was 24 and moved back to Sydney.

And yet there's still a part of me that thinks: "Can't I just go back to how it used to be?"

There's a lot of psychological conflict floating around in my head right now. Most of it is between me and me. Various mes that want different things - ALL THE THINGS - and are trying to work out which should get priority.

I pretty sure only people who flip houses for a living don't have existential life issues with buying and selling real estate. :)
