You're looking at the new house. That's right we finally found one, and it was a steal of a deal really. The wife and i figure we must have looked at about 30 houses all around town before we got this one. There is quite a story to this house too, allow me to write about it where no one will ever read it.
So after we had been looking for a couple of weeks this house came on the market. My wife and I saw it and decided to take a look at the house, unfortunatly before we could even schedule a showing of the house it was snatched up by another couple. Oh well, we put it out of our minds. well about a month and a half went by and we still hadn't really found a house that we liked that we could either afford or keep on the market long enough for us to put an offer on. Then this house came back on the market b/c the buyers (who were moving into town) got re-routed to another city. Well we didn't wait this time and got a showing of it the next day after it was on the market.
The day of the showing we put in an offer and were able to secure the house as our own. (subject to a house inspection next week)
This house is in a really nice neighborhood not to far from where we live now. The houses in that subdivison are really nice. The last house that sold in the neighborhood sold for like 310K. Well this house had an asking price of well under that. When we put in our offer we gave them full asking price and asked for 5K back in closing cost, to which they accepted. SWEEEEET!!
The house has 4 bedroom 2 1/2 bath with a 2 car garage. The back yard is simply HUGE considering it is in the burbs. There is plenty of room for horse-shoe pits and maybe in the distant future an in-ground pool.
Best part is when we move, the wife has already agreed that i get my one room (which just happens to be the biggest in the house. I can do what ever i want to with the room (with in reason). That means i will no longer have to suffer in the "mini" man room anymore. This house ushers in a new era of rooms for me. That's right now i will have the "MEGA" Man room a.k.a. Manville.
More pics and info later... Party to follow us moving in.
