Our Big Step

Our next step;

 So these past few days we had decided to go with this home, Its in Nashville county. The home is about seven houses down from the fire department. Two blocks away from two gas stations a Rite Aid and a Surfine. Also only 30mins away from my job instead of an hour. Its is a 3bed 1.5baths attic and basement, With a redone kitchen and has a cute little fire place. The property sits right up against farmland which is nice because we know there wont be a development behind us. The only bad thing is that the street confront of the house is RT116 which is a semi busy road.

  After we looked at the house with our fathers got there options (which was not a very positive option). We decided we still loved the house with its minor flaws, which we found out could be possibly fix or replaced upon request.(but, not meaning they will do it) Then with all the rain we had we check to see if everything held up, it did for the most past not flooding in the basement no leaks in the attic, but the kitchen door leaked and damaged on of the counters in the kitchen which didn't make us very happy at all and again will be asking to see if they will fix or replace both as well.

Next, we told her "sold!".. so she told us "lets put in an offer"
This is where all the numbers and agreements,forms and where you get to sigh and initial all over the place. We got a few important papers and notices about what we where getting into next and these where them:
