We’re moving!

January 13th, 2010

I have been kinda hesitant to write this but God has been so apparent through this whole process. Right before Christmas time we found this incredible house. After we went to go see it we sat down and figured out our best offer and submitted it. This is a bank owned property so they came back and told us they had received other offers and we needed to submit our highest and best offer. Our offer was already the highest and best one we could do and we got a response back saying thanks but we have decided to go forward with another offer. Okay. We continued looking for houses and found one in a great location that was doable but it would take a lot of work to get it the way we wanted. We were driving home talking about it, pretty confident we would put an offer on it when this feeling just hit me. It didn’t feel right. We could justify all the reasons why we should buy this house but I couldn’t shake the feeling. When we got home Mike suggested we do another search online. I looked and there wasn’t anything really and then I decided to pull up our house we didn’t get. There’s no reason to do this other than torture yourself but it showed it was still available. Long story short, the first offer fell through and they put it back on the mkt for a lower price. We offered, accepted their counter and are going to close on or before february 22nd. Only God could have helped us get this house. Standard houses in florida in our price range are typically 1300 square feet. This one is 2200 with a fireplace, 2 car garage, huge yard for the puppy and 5 bedrooms 3 1/2 baths. Thanks upon thanks doesn’t begin to express how grateful and humbled we are. Without further ado- Our new house.
