Guess What We Just Bought?

This home was up for auction yesterday and now it's ours. We close Tuesday and are kinda in shock that w/in a few days we will have a home.
It's got a unique look from the outside as you can see, and It's such an amazing deal we couldn't pass it up.
3 bd 2 bth 1,200 sq ft. It's a prefect layout for us.
It needs quit a bit of fix up, but we couldn't be more excited!

Off To The Bank

It's all in the hands of the Bank now.
We do have a little advantage though because of the relationship of the underwriter to the sellers.
He said the sale should be complete w/in 60 days, but he would try for even sooner.
Mack will be born in approx 62 days, so I pray that everything will continue on track & we will be moved in before he arrives.
Continue to wish us luck!

In the middle of countering.....

AGH!!!!!

The anticipation is driving me crazy.
We find out tomorrow at NOON if our offer will be accepted.
We are easily the highest bid so far.
Cross your fingers for us!

Condo For Sale?


Ok, we are attempting the buying thing one more time.
We have moved onto a different Mortgage Broker who may work better for us. We think we may still be able to buy, however we are looking into Condo's and townhouses.
Do you have one for sale?
Still looking in the Mesa/Gilbert area.
2-3 bedrooms in the $50,000 price range.

We prefer single story on the main level and we have an offer in on one, but we are the 2nd offer, so who knows what will happen.

P.s. Thanks to everyone who responded w/feed back on rentals available!

Fingerpainting on Bailey and a Hopeful Home

Katelyn came running into me this morning after I had sat her down w/ some finger paints. Yes, i should have been watching her, but I had some pending stuff to do on the computer.
Anyways, she was so concerned about something regarding Bailey, so i went into the kitchen and found that Bailey had been used to finger paint on.
Just look at that face :(
This girl loves her finger paints and it's rare that Mommy is nice enough to pull them out for her, Even though it is a very easy clean up-surprisingly.

Here is our hopeful home 1/2 of it in the pic at least.
We are in the middle of the whole process and are keeping our fingers crossed.
It needs a lot of work, but we think we can get an awesome deal on it.
On a corner lot, it's about 2400 sq ft 4 bedroom/3 bath. Living room, family room and large kitchen and eating area. Plus lots of storage space and a large backyard with gardening area.
The only downfall is No garage, but there is a a lot of closed in storage space is the backyard.
We are also making offers on a few more homes, but this is our top choice. I am trying not to get too excited because you never know what will happen, but the decorative wheels are turning and they are hard to turn off.
