The House

I guess I should mention that we are closing on Tuesday huh!? ![]()
Yes, indeed we are closing on our first home this Tuesday. Our Realtor was a tad worried because we didn’t seem so excited. Well, we are, but a bit nervous at the same time. We have already been to the closing table once, entered into and exited 3 contracts before settling on this home. It has been a rollercoaster of sorts and I can safely say for the both of us that it won’t be real until we have the keys. So while we are excited we know that it isn’t over until all papers are signed and we are the legal owners of this home.
I wish I blogged here while going through the process but it was definately a learning experience, especially with the recent market down turns. Some sellers just aren’t tapped into reality and still holding on to the possibilities that the boom of 2005 brought others. Our seller was actually quite reasonable in his pricing but difficult in other ways, still it worked out in the end. We love the home we finally settled on. It is 3000 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. I can safely say we will be here for a while even after 2 children. So for us this is the perfect starter home and I couldn’t be happier! I just need the keys!
