So got a call from my fiance earlier today, asking if I wanted good news or bad news. I said bad news. He said ok well the bad news is we're going to pay a bit more but the good news is we are getting the house. It turns out the other offer that the seller accepted fell through so they called our agent and asked if we were still interested. So yeah just waiting for some clarification on the title of the house. Of course I had already planned to go look at another house later in the day. So I talked to our agent and she said we could talk later in the day after I saw the other house. I went and saw the house because it was bigger and looked like a better neighborhood. So went and saw the house (a bank owned property) The house needed a lot of work but the neighborhood was really nice and the rv parking situation was nicer. We talked to our agent about it turns out that the house had fallen out of escrow earlier in the year because it didn't meet FHA inspection criteria which means we wouldn't be able to buy the house. So yeah guess we are going to proceed with purchasing the first house. Waiting to hear back on what we have to do to get the ball rolling towards purchasing the house but it looks like we will probably be getting the house.
In other news we are going to go look at two potential wedding sites this weekend. We being my fiance, my matron of honor, and maybe even my mom, and of course me. So with a little luck we will be able to choose a site and nail down a date and then at least that stuff will be started as well.
As another note I have started reading the book Home Comforts by Cheryl Mendelson in preparation for having a house of my own to keep. Hopefully it will give me insight on taking care of my house and making it feel like a home.
Well I'll hopefully have updates on the wedding site and the house soon!
