OK, so we've been embarrassingly lax about keeping this up since the Great House Hunt. What can we say...there's been a lot to do! Here's a quick rundown of the high points: Closing took place as scheduled on 30 June. Though there was one glitch in that the most critical piece of paper (the...
The folks who submitted the contingency contract yesterday will not remove the contingency (though they could), so we are not accepting their offer (our agent agrees). We had a broker's open today; 15 agents came through and gave mostly excellent feedback. I few tweak-y things we could do (will...
It'll be here in about two weeks. I'm going to take a nap on it. :-)
Show us an antique. Submitted by jacolily. Our dining room table was inherited from my Big Grandma. It had recently been refinished without the leaves and my dad told us the wrong color so we need to get them matched someday. I usually have a runner over the leaves so you can't tell. Obviously, the...
zach called me about all the broker information. the good thing is that we have above average credit! she said that the smartest thing would be to only take out $73,000 instead of the money that we want to take out for the summerside house (the newer one). i guess because there's a better chance...
Of course they came in with a contract that would be best-case for them. Their initial offer is is almost 10K less than our list price, contingent on the sale of some property they have, and taking possession end of September. Our agent is finding out if they HAVE to sell that property for...
Homeowners with unaffordable mortgages will find relief at the Save the Dream of Home Ownership Events. Never before have thousands of homeowners at one time been matched with hundreds of Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America (NACA) counselors who will re-underwrite or restructure mortgages...
I've been so busy working that I almost forgot it was Tuesday. And then when I got here, I saw that the last time I blogged was LAST Tuesday. So much to write about... I'll get caught up soon. Loathe: - Hearing one of my girls sobbing on the phone because she misses me while on vacation - Being...
Things that are good concerning our housing situation: - We have had 3 showings in the past week. - All have had good feedback. - Tonight's is resulting in a contract to be submitted by 10 AM tomorrow morning. Things that are not so good concerning our housing situation: - The folks who are writing...
aubrey has me addicted to these things now. we went and got some jager and peach schnapps. it turned out better than the ones at the pub. we're supposed to hear back from the brokers tomorrow. zach's leaning toward the older house. he has so much stuff that he wants to do with it. we'll see! i'll be...
This is what I have thus far: I have a mirror like this somewhere: And I ordered some ceiling tiles to do something with: I may do some DIY stuff with some paper from www.paper-source.com LOVE that stuff. And last but not least I like these from www.art.com. The artist is actually a friend of my...
We finally received feedback from Sunday's showing: "Hi [insert our agent's name here], I was going to call you today with feedback. VERY NICE HOUSE. Buyers did like it. Getting preapproval right now. Possible interest. Thanks so much! M." Rob's comment to this was: "Good. Now, WHY THE #(*#_ would...
Just got word that we have a showing tonight between 6:15-7:15. Also was asked to give my final "drop dead" date for my current job; the pastor needs it by the end of the week so that final plans can be made for my replacement. Why is the song "Pressure" running through my head right now....?
Things I'm Not Liking: That I can't find pictures of our bedroom before we got the new furniture because I want to share the "after" pictures! Ray not feeling well. Its rare that he comes home from work. Hope he's not getting a migraine. Gndsgang having to cancel our golf date. Things I Like: Cody...
we're in a pickle about these two houses. we looked at 5 or 6 different homes and two turned out to be pretty good deals. we'll find out how much we qualify for later on. the house in the top picture is pretty much brand new. it has everything already in it. built pretty new, but not sure what year....
For a while, my toilet has been running. Like, after you flush it, it makes that swooshing/whistling noise. Except, you know how it's only supposed to make that swooshing/whistling noise for about five minutes and then stop? Mine has been going on for, like, 2 months. It has been driving me CRAZY!...
Today's topic is Children who claim to have been reincarnated. If there's one thing that bothers me, on a personal level, it's the thought of children being trapped "in spirit" within this physical plane. If there's one thing that truly intrigues me, it's those stories of children who claim to have...
