I was in love with a house that I met on the internetz… but it was taken away from me before we could meet IRL. It made me sad.
Then we went to look at a house that I thought looked kinda crap on the internetz, but in person I could see it really working for us. 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a small deck, a pool, a relatively large yard (narrow yard, but long for in the village), it was built in 1932 but has recently had a lot of work done on it and it is only $125,000. Joel needs to go and talk to some mortgage people to figure out the financial bit, and his brother wants to do a walk-through, but I think it could really work. Joel does not seem to be as sold on it as I am, but for the price-range that we are looking for, I think it’s a great deal… so now I just have to wait for him to talk to the mortgage-y people and take his brother to see it and whatnot.
The longer we wait, the more I worry that someone else is going to jump on it and we’ll be screwed. *sigh*
