Getting Closer...

Getting closer to the finish line. Last week the first mortgage company accepted the amended offer. Now the sellers have to negotiate with the second mortgage company. Couple more weeks for that... Looking more like a late Nov, early Dec closing... Hope to be in before Christmas? Basement dwelling is wearing...

Still waiting...

It has been over a month and the only news is that the current mortgage co has asked for more money (I guess this is a good sign?). With any luck I'll get the final offer this week, so that I have a hope of getting my stuff moved in before the snow flies... I can't wait to get my new sewing studio (with the big fabric closet with a full length mirror on the door!). Can't wait to have my own space!

Offer Accepted!

I have now moved from making an offer to offer accepted pending third party approval. Please wish for me that all goes well, and I'm moved into a house sooner rather than later... I offered a close date of on or before Dec 1 - I really hope it is well before...

Made another offer!

Made an offer on a cute bungalow, near Lake Phalen. Now, to see if the sellers will accept my offer, then to see if the banks do... Short sale. The goal is to be moved in prior to Christmas. By Thanksgiving would be even better - By my birthday the best. Now to wait and see what happens!

Waiting - again...

The last offer I made was turned down - another offer accepted. No worries, tho - looked at aother house, in an entirely different neighborhood, and am planning on making an offer tomorrow. This one needs very little work. Pretty much done from top to bottom!

Waiting...

Offer was made today, waiting for the word. I suppose if this falls thru, another opportunity will show up to take it's place...

Buying a house

Planning on putting an offer on a house tomorrow. I'm hoping that my offer is accepted, then the work begins!

I'll post photos, before and after as the work commences. First pass will be enough clean up to move in, then will work on the real remodeling.
