I am beside myself!

We just got an email from our realtor with papers to sign... the bank accepted our offer and we close on March 3rd!  We actually had another offer accepted last week as well, but we really wanted this house and after inspecting the first one the structural damage was too great anyway.  DH and I are so excited, this is our first time as homeowners.  We will be living in 2400 square feet of space (3 times what we have now) on a golf course in Tamarac.  I am praying the closing actually happens.  It's a foreclosure so it needs some repairs right away (it has no kitchen at all or a garage door, for starters) but here is a sneak peak of our backyard, the golf course is to the right on the other side of the bushes in the distance.

Re: I am beside myself!

  • Nice! Congrats!

    We bought our house in November and have been living here for about 2 months already. I love it! Owning a home is just exciting. 

  • Congrats, Jessie! That's so amazing :)  

    Even though it needs some major repairs right away, it's pretty fun to be able to move in and get a brand new kitchen! 

  • Congrats Jessi, I seen your post on FB and was wondering what you were talking about. You are going to love being a home owner!

  • Thanks ladies!  Sorry I couldn't say what it was on facebook yet, DH's family is completely unaware of the fact we were even looking at a house (this is another story for another day) and I can't say anything publicly until they know in the next few days.  It feels good to share with you all though!

  • Congrats Jessi. Buying a foreclosure is definitely the way to go. Have you considered using the foreclosng bank as your lender? We did this with Chase and got a TON of incentives. Email me if you want details. :)

    He's my fairytale, a dream when I'm not sleeping.

  • CONGRATS!  Sending lots of closing dust.  : )  Like what I see so far!  Good luck with the renovations; they aren't as intimidating once you get into them.  I had to redo my entire house!

  • Wow congrats!! That's a nice size back yard, once you give it some minimal fix up, it'll look like a dream! Our home was also a foreclosure (although, it didn't need much.. thank god). Just remember to take it one day/ project at a time. When we first moved in all I wanted to do is get everything beautiful right away, but then reality hit. We realized that there is no need to rush (or put a stress on our finances) .. and so now we're taking it section by section and it's working out.

    Best of luck on your new homeParty!!!

  • Congrats!!  So happy to hear the good news. Good luck with the closing.
  • Jessi that is amazing!!!!!! Congrats!! I wish you the best at closing and hope you have the keys in your hand soon
