House Hunting: Day 2

Today was much more low key than yesterday, but Julie (our realtor), Noel and I went to check out a house that was a little over our price range, but that the listing agent said they were accepting all offers.

Without much hope in it working out, we went to check it out. It is not our ideal lot/location or even layout. BUT, It's in pristine condition, has all new carpeting/flooring, and kitchen appliances. It's on a huge level lot and will have lots of outdoor space for Noel to play!

I was sure to take lots of pictures, and I even did a video "tour" of the house so that Tim could see everything that we did. After talking it over with our mortgage broker, Tim and I decided to just go for it. We have a time limit that is rapidly approaching (Under contract by April 5) and we don't have time to wait around for new houses to come on the market.

She delivered our contract tonight and we should know something by Monday. It's easy to get my hopes up, but I know that these things fall through pretty often. A couple of years ago we had three houses fall out from under us.
