It has only been 9 months since we started this little adventure!
We have changed our minds numerous times in the process
to build..to buy
rambler... 2 story..multi level
new...old...
$$$$$
We have given up so many times because we weren't able to find anything but TRASH.
I am so sick of looking at houses and I even have my mom and sister looking for homes for us.. they just might be looking a little further north than we want! :)
Then I get frustrated being in this dang apartment and reminded not to miss out on that extra $8000.00--who can pass that up!?
Seriously..
We are on what feels like house #251
I am sure Andy (our realtor) is really sick of us
A couple weeks ago, we finally got really serious about it and had made some final decisions what we were looking for and what we weren't going to settle for, etc and realizing that this is our first home and can't have it all... We did a search and found a big list of homes... While making this list, I had a strong feeling that in this batch...we were going to find our home! There were good options, but one I really liked and felt really good about and couldn't wait to see it. On Sunday we went driving around to check out the areas and the homes (in real life). We drove by the possibilities and thought ok.. but when we came to the one... we both looked at each other and said " I like it" and the neighborhood is great! We proceeded to look at all of the homes on our list, but ended up crossing off 3/4 of them. All I could think about was the one!
We sent them to Andy and scheduled a time to go look
We have been praying like crazy to help us find the right house..
Thursday night we walked through it. Andy said there were 2 others scheduled to see it the same night. We both got done looking and I said " I like it" (which I think might have only happened 1 other time in a home way more than our max price) and then Brandon said "I like it too". We looked out the window and saw people waiting in their cars to come look. It felt like HOME, so we drove up to Brigham and put an offer in on it without looking at any of the others on our list.
YEP.. WE FINALLY PUT AN OFFER IN ON A HOME!!
IT feels so right
Brandon told me tonight that he has been having dreams of us living there!
On the way to Brigham, I KNEW it was the right one and so did Brandon!
Now..... WE WAIT TO HEAR BACK!!!

Good Luck, I hope it works out for you. I never had that problem because in Eureka there were only 6 houses to choose from and no where to rent. I think I would go crazy if I had a ton of options. Let me know how it goes.
