We might be buying a house!

ladypirate Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,569 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 7/30/2007	K and I have been casually looking at houses since we moved to this area, but we hadn't seen anything in our price range that we really liked. Last week we saw a house that intrigued us and did a drive by, then went and looked at it yesterday with a realtor. Both of us just loved it. It's within our price range, has a really cool view and best of all the ceilings are high enough for K (who is 6'7")! We're going to talk to the bank this weekend and see about getting pre-approved, then maybe make an offer. This would be the first home for both of us, so we're both pretty nervous/excited! If we do end up buying, we're talking about just going down to the courthouse and getting married rather than waiting until next year and having a wedding. Eep! I could be married sooner than I thought. - Hot chocolate butterflies dance through my heart and tell me you're the one. Come take a sip of this so I can look into your beautiful eyes and say, "Ouch! I spilled some on my lap, burning my leg, but I don't mind. I'm with you."

It's so exciting that you guys found a place you like. Also, now is the perfect time to buy. Especially since you get up to $8,000 back when you file your taxes at the end of the year if you buy this year. Wow, 6'7!!! That's crazy

FI and I were in your shoes almost exactly a year ago and I have to say it was the most stressful thing I've ever gone through (due partly to an incompetent loan processor) but we made it. I firmly believe that our relationship is all the most strong because of it. Good luck at the bank! *----** C-tek

Down at the end you can see the french doors that lead out into a little enclosed sunroom. Perfect for a little breakfast nook! You can also see the view out the windows (although it's a little bleached out). It's beautiful! - Hot chocolate butterflies dance through my heart and tell me you're the one.
