Copying Steph and Danielle....we bought a house!!

We put our initial offer in on Sunday, negotiated all week.... and its official!!!  Our offer was accepted and we got a GREAT deal on an amazing house :)  Inspection is on Wednesday, and potential closing is May 31st!  OMG!!!!!!  Hehe :)  Needless to say, we are super excited.  Per Danielle's suggestion, if all goes well, I will start a house blog and start posting some pictures.  So pumped!!!!!!!  Here is a picture of the front of the house :)

    COPYCAT.

    HOLY CRAP. That house is freaking gorgeous.  I'm a creep, and I really want to see more pictures of the inside... wanna PM me the link? (if not, I understand.)

    And, yes, house blogs are the cool thing to do ;)

    OMG that house looks freakin amazing!!  Congrats! Totally jealous right now of all you homeowners.  Can't wait to see more pics :)  That's our next to-do as soon as the wedding is over and we save up a little more money again.

    Ditto everyone else! I love looking at houses, even though DH and I won't be buying for awhile. Sometimes, when I'm bored, I look at listings hehe. I'm kind of a day dreamer, lol. 

    For example, a couple of weeks ago, the house across the street from us was put on the market, so naturally I googled it and found the listing. It was SO fun to look at all the pics and stuff...the place has an insane master walk-in closet AND a wine cellar. Granted, it was like 2 mil and way out of any price range I can imagine ever having for a house, but still...pretty cool. Needless to say, it was snatched up within the week!

    ETA: Sometimes, I go to open houses and pretend I'm in the market for a house...hehehe

    Jealous like most of the other girls... Bimbi... I also do the stalking of houses! FI and I actually drove past a house I found out as foreclosed (by fi's parents' bank) upon and was in amazing condition. I just wish we could afford it at this point!

    Bimbi, my family totally used to do that for fun on Sundays when I was growing up! Sometimes, it was sort of pseudo-potentially-serious, but most of the time it was just free entertainment and helped my mom get decorating ideas ;-)

    Congrats! It looks beautiful! I can't wait to see more! Like others, I'm so jealous of you home-buyers. I've totally had houses on the brain lately, even though a house for FI and I is a few years away still. Oh well, I'll have to live vicariously through your blogs.

    Thank you ladies!!  We are so excited :)  FI and I have been very blessed with a great financial advisor who has made sure we would be prepared to buy a house when we were ready - if anyone is looking for help with financial planning, let me know, I will get you her contact info!!

    I will post more pictures soon, I promise!  We have our inspection on Wednesday and I will probably start the house blog then.  :)
