Dh and I've been house hunting for several months. Found a good one, but I found serious problems with the title and the owner wanted waaay too much for the property and wouldn't budge. So we looked some more.
Found a 2 story, 2068 sq ft 3 bed 2.5 bath with 2 car garage asking 182k. We offered 177k on sunday, and they took it!! I'm frigging thrilled!!! Now for everything else in home buying hahah.
Other updates- my post of a few weeks ago where I was scared is now irrelevant, but dh and I are talking about moving the ttc time table up a bit.
Our apartment complex is currently the favorite hang out of a relatively permanent family of Canada geese. Guys, I have goslings outside! Three survived this year, and I got photos!! My princess cat wants to chase them but I won't let her out.
All the internet wine rum and margaritas on me!
Re: NWR- we're getting a house!
But yay for a good update!
Dh and I are currently "fighting" over paint swatches.
Yay that's so exciting
And uh yeah, great price! My house was way more than that and is smaller LOL
And yeah, geese freak me the hell out. I used to live in Chicago across from North Pond and had a few follow me as I was walking through the park. Felt like I should carry mace or something.
^^^this. Paint can look so different in different lighting and times of day. We even did this on the exterior of our house when we were building it. The neighbors did not, and what they thought was beige ended up being pink looking most times of day.
You can even paint pieces of foam core board and carry it around the house, that way you aren't painting right on the wall, and you can test it in lots of different areas. When I did home staging we did this, we had a whole box full of 8x10 boards in our usual neutral shades. Some looked great in some houses, but pukey in others.
But that one by the Trader Joe's drives me bananas. The traffic backs up for blocks....
