Home Owners?

Today we got the ball rolling...the offer was accepted on the house I have been wanting. We made an offer to them over a month ago. They wouldn't deal with it because they were so sure they were going to get the price they wanted. We weren't willing to pay them what they wanted. So we waited. They dropped the price on it last week quite a bit. So, after talking to our realtor, we made them another offer...still not what they wanted...but they took it! And now the fun begins with inspectors and paperwork, etc.

The family room

There's a very large basement (semi finished) and 3 good sized bedrooms upstairs...along with the two bathrooms. I love the yard and the neighborhood. It is about a half mile from where we live now. And it is a block from our daughter's school.

There is an extremely large finished room in the basement with closets at both ends. We hope to put up a sound proofing wall down the center so the kids (teenagers, you know) can have their own large spaces. They will like that. Then hubby can use one of the bedrooms upstairs for his office and the other one can be a guest room or computer room...or both.

We also want to extend the driveway off to the side so Jr. has a place for his car and doesn't have to park in the street.

So many plans. And it all won't get done right away. But eventually. Of course, the house isn't ours yet. There could be lots of things that can go wrong between now and the end of the deal.

As I told Troy...a new adventure. SmileyCentral.com
