House Hunting part 2

So, let me update you on whats going on with our home search!it's so exciting!!
  Our realtor is through  Remax, her name is Tina. She really funny and make the most strangest faces when is explaining things to you or when she gives us feed back.Anyways, Over this past weekend on Sunday to be exact. We look at four houses. There was; the good,bad and the ugly.

This is the first house we went to it was a cute little one story rancher with 2 beds, one bath.
What we are looking for a house is size; both house and backyard. Style but not as much as we plan on changing it around.
The good: it was well taken care of, HVAC was installed, the neighborhood was nice and there was hardwood everywhere. I don't like carpet, at all!
The bad: It was a bit over our price range, positive the taxes were low enough to compensate for it. There is not garage and there may be a minor leak in the sun room the build on.

So, house number two was a lot bigger, but an older woman lived there so it was not updated at all except for the windows.
The good: covered floors with carpet had hardwood underneath. Very big for the price,It has a nice size backyard and front yard, Amazing neighborhood and had HVAC as well.
The bad: The district it fell into,no smoke detectors,need new light fictures and more lights in general, Alot of work(updating) and we don't have the money to do that. The last time we saw it it was Pending sale. So more then likely its sold.

Okay, first i would like to say about this house is when you look out the window to the road, there it is a VERY large house that is tan with VERY VERY bright blue trimming all over and a match mail box to go with it ... i have no idea why they would do that ... but its UGLY! so that one reason im not considering this house.
The good:Updated to a point,basment was half assedly done.
The bad: the floors need to be redone, the basement needs to be redone,the backyard need to be fixed up(theres weird logs squaring out the bushes and trees..very strange) We didnt feel this home felt very homely to us.

This was the one we really wanted, but it was just taken back of the market.. It hasnt sold in over 9months and more then likely it will be back up soon.
The Good: HUGE lot! nice kitchen,nice neighborhood,best location,lower then our price range!
The bad: It's a short sale,needs a lot of TLC, but not in the sense we would have to fix things,the drive way and porch in the back do need redone.


Even though we have not found the right place yet we have not giving up hope but we soon have to work faster if we wanna find a USDA loan home, There passing a law that soon Dover will but put as FHA home loaner, which sucks. We have been looking into now how we would like to decorate to just keep our minds busy.
So i have been on:

That;s just a few and a start to what come a head, hopefully before the last blog we will have the house of our dreams!!
