So...after a lot of talking, stressing, and viewing more houses (meaning 1 more) we have decided...
To make an offer!
AHHHHH!
Well lets hope this post doesn't "jinx" our luck, but if it's meant to be it will happen.
How did we get from Gross, gross, GROSS- to - making an offer??
After pretty much writing this house off the list I scheduled another viewing for a different home in the subdivision across the street from this house. Dan had to work so I invited my mom to come with me. After the walk through I continued to think about that house and my mom wanted to see it too. So Michele, our realtor, checked if we could drive on over and check it out, we could, so we went. My mom and Michele really felt strongly that this was a great investment for us if we could get the right price.
I for sure agree, BUT buying a house is so scary!! And this house was so big, I was intimidated.
I began to think about the fact that when all was said and done the house would be brand spanking new with all new appliances, with all new paint, carpet, bathrooms and kitchen for right within our budget. What more could you possibly want? Is it going to take hard work- yes. But I think we can do it.
So in the next couple days the bank will receive our offer and will probably counter-offer. We have a long road ahead of us and it is very possible we may not end up with this house. But you will never know if you don't try.
I'm excited, stressed, nervous, anxious, AHHH!
Are you our future home???

when are you supposed to know by? The waiting drove us nuts too. House looks beautiful though!
I just talked to our realtor today, We should know by Monday, BUT we are expecting a counter offer b/c it is bank owned. I am just praying no one else is offering at the same time as us and that we end up with it. And yes the waiting is KILLING me. I feel so anxious!! THANK YOU! :-)
