The Hunt is Over!

Yesterday, we put in a second offer on the house that we fell in love with a few weeks ago and the seller had until this morning to respond. They came back with a counter-offer still within our range, so we accepted! I think our letter to the seller sealed the deal; they wrote us back an equally heartfelt letter with their counter-offer.

Home inspection this Friday... fingers crossed things keep moving along swimmingly!

How exciting! Hoping for a good inspection. Remember if you are getting an older home...they do have a lot of what we call "character"...but do make sure the major elements (windows, heating/cooling, plumbing, electrical...are in place!).
