Bummer, sorry to hear about that Earl. Home shopping sucks!

Damn, I know that must be extremely dissapointing. Hopefully something else will come along.

We have found 4 more houses that we like and are going to look at them on Saturday. I'm pretty excited. I'm kinda glad the last one fell through cause I really like the ones we're going to look at.

Fordman4ever · 07-08-2011, 10:01 AM

Here are the new houses we're looking at.

Number 1

Number 2

Number 3

Number 4

Number 1 is really nice and is pretty similar to the one that we were looking at that got sold.

Number 2 has really nice floors and an OK kitchen, not enough pantry space though.

Number 3 has a pretty big kitchen and a walk out balcony from the master bedroom.

Number 4 has a wood burning fireplace and the best kitchen IMO.

Fordman4ever · 07-08-2011, 11:44 PM

We're going to look at the houses tomorrow. wish us luck.

Fordman4ever · 07-09-2011, 11:47 AM

Well, we went and looked at the houses today and it looks like Number 1 is the winner so far. Number 2 was a compete dud as it had mold in the garage and laundry room and smelled like crap. Number 3 was a "short sale" which can often be not so short, and it needed a lot of work. And Number 4 was really nice on the inside but the only bathroom upstairs was a shared bathroom with the master bedroom and everyone else.(the wife hates sharing bathrooms, so that one is a no) but all in all, we really liked the one on Corn Dr. The back porch is huge and so is the back yard. Hopefully this one will stay on the market long enough for us to put a bid on it.

Good luck, the right one will come along when it is meant to. I'm glad my first two offers were declined because I ended up finding a house that I like MUCH better. Things tend to work out the way they are supposed to. Buying is really stressful, but so worth it.

I'm a Realtor and I can honestly say I've seen this happen many, many times. It all works out for the best in the end.

Fordman4ever · 07-10-2011, 12:02 AM

Looks like we're putting an offer down on the house on Corn Dr. tomorrow. I really hope we get it. We really like it.

Mattso3000 · 07-10-2011, 12:04 AM

Sweet looking house, good luck!

The back yard is amazing. we're going to put a playground and a garden back there.
