Finding the House (post 4)

The inspection went great.  I was honestly surprised about that :).  I knew there had to be some catch.  But I guess what I've learned from this is the catch is that banks just want to unload this bad debt.  Have I mentioned yet it was a foreclosure?  That is what I mean by bad debt.

Anyway, after a great inspection all that was left was to wait for the loan process.  I thought that would be quick.  I thought we might get in a week or two before Christmas.

Maybe I'd even clean it up, put a red bow on the door (wait...green?  the door itself is red) and then drive the kids over for Christmas morning.  They had been struggling with not having a home as much as we had.  When things fell apart in Crescent, they took it especially hard.  So, what better Christmas gift?

Formal living room.  Now that's gonna be fun to paint over :)

The state of the carpet...wow.  I need patience to wait for when we can get it replaced :)

  1. I am anxious to see the after pictures of the house! I am glad that you finally found a place that you love for a price that you can love too. Good luck in fixing it.
