We began (or rather I began) our house hunting to get a scope of what's out there. We're not quite ready to buy (need some more $ for a down payment)... BUT it doesn't hurt to get an idea. I've seen about 12-15 houses so far and enjoyed telling Brian all about them.
Fate would have it that we have found one that we think is perfect for us-- and we could afford it within 2 months! So- Brian hasn't actually been inside himself, but we walked around the outside together yesterday and he's liking it. Hopefully he can see it on Friday. It's at the low price end of what we thought we'd purchase because it is a fixer-upper, yet we like that idea. It has some real potential we think (as long as there aren't any MAJOR problems). There are actually 4 bedrooms (not 3) and the square footage is twice the other houses I've looked at. Having the extra space would be wonderful; now all the 3-bedroom places seem so crowded inside. The yard is also a good size. We would do a lot of upgrading, but I think it would be fun (of course that's what I say NOW, but still, we could put our own touches- fun!).
I must be out of my mind because I haven't been able to sleep these past couple of nights just thinking about this house and the possibilities. It's been on the market for a long time and it's bank-owned, so I think we have a chance at this one... Oh brother, it's so exciting to think about! I realize an inspection could make or break this house, and we'll see what Brian truly thinks after he's been inside himself, but regardless- I still can't sleep over it!
