We might have found our new home

Yesterday we were informed that the condo we visited last during our day of house hunting earlier this month had some free 3-bedroom apartment available within our budget AND the landlord would be willing to wait for us to move in only end of October.
Of course we had to schedule a visit as soon as possible because "those units will go fast", as the agent said.
Tonight we went to the Tresalveo condo and indeed visited there two 3-bedroom apartments. The first one on the 4th floor, the second one on the 13th floor.
Both apartments are more or less the same except for the lay-out. That's the magic of new condos.
But the most importantly both are big: 155sqm and 158sqm. The biggest we've seen so far. The living room is big enough to have fit our previous sofa and the dinning table. Seems that with a good agent and pretty clear criteria, you can actually find an apartment big enough within our budget (well the top of it) well connected with a direct subway line to work and to downtown.
They are brand new, i.e. we would be the first ones to live in it, a bit like in our previous apartment in Meise.
Next step is to prepare a letter of intent asking the landlord whether he/she would take us as tenants, also mentioning the few requirements we have.

We'll sleep over it tonight and will make a decision tomorrow morning.

N.B.: for a second I even wondered whether we should have brought the cats. But let's face it they are having much more fun at my parents'.
