Three business days after we put a contract on “the” house, the bank foreclosed.
We no longer have a contract on the house, but are returning to negotiations with the bank… A lot of people say this could be to our financial advantage. I’m hoping this is true. I’m expecting this to be true.
But I won’t know for sure until I know for sure.
Ya know?
This week, while we were down there attending a wedding and being introduced to our new church family, we also picked out paint colors – looked into furnishings – talked about fireplace mantles – and even dreamed of a mural in the dining room.
While feverishly checking the news about the home-buyers’ rebate being extended, scurrying to find out who the new listing agent is, and asking if the bank was going to put it back on the market.
5 weeks.
We have 5 weeks.
5 weeks? That’s seriously amazing. Looking forward to getting your new address so I know where to send the Christmas card
That’s crazy for you guys.
I can’t help but feel really bad for the current owners of the house. They were SO close!
yeah. It’s a bad rap for everyone but us and our realtor…
Ugh. What a wild ride, Mandy.
What will mural be of? (I know I am being nosey rosey)
What will the mural be of? (I know I am being nosey rosey)
(oops oldageitis set in for a moment)
hahaha.
It’ll probably be a silhouette of a tree. But I’m not yet sure what kind of tree.
We bought a house this summer and everyone warned us how stressful it can be… but boy, oh, boy was it ever. I’ll be thinking for you guys and praying that you get it. BTW… my pregnancy brain… I was looking at the pics you posted of your house in B&W and kept thinking to myself… gee the kitchen doesn’t look green… it’s got that awesome checker board floor, and nice white cabinets and counters… then I got it.
PREGNANCY BRAIN?!!??
Congrats!!! Hope you’re feeling better this time around…
