Well Blast

So we were going to make an offer on a house yesterday. It was perfect, very suited to us and the best deal in price I have ever seen. My parents were actually going to make a cash offer with some of our savings and some of theirs and then we were going to fix what what wrong so it would pass appraisal and then Trevor and I were going to buy it for more from them so we would have money to pay our savings' back and some extra to play with to fix it up. No offers had been made until 4 hours before our appointment with the realtor was to write up the contract. Then 2 came in both cash and 1 more than the asking price. It was over. I was sad. I knew this might happen. Too bad it was like minutes before I got back from the bank depositing the majority of my savings into my parents account so they could show proof of funds.

I have to believe there is something better its just hard right now because there isn't even anything worth looking at right now and even if there was we would be comparing it to what we just lost. Sigh....say a prayer for us.

House Hunting

So we've looked at three and perused probably about 5 more on-line. We may have a winner. Thought it wasn't going to be possible and a possible option has presented itself. So if all goes well an offer may be made. Trying not to get too excited because this may not be it, in which case something better might be in store. If it happens I will explain details because we would def be beating the system. So readers, you can be on pins and needles with me for a while. OMG this house is AWESOME and a good deal! Ok thats as excited as I will get at this present time. ;)
