House Hunting: Harmony House

Well the day has finally come... we've put an offer on a house!!! I can hardly believe it myself! This whole process has gone much quicker and smoother than I anticipated! I think a lot of that has to do with our AMAZING Realtor - Bobby Lyerly! (Shameless plug for Bobby :) ) But seriously - he's been so helpful and has really only shown us houses that fit what we're looking for! I didn't know we were that easy to read...

But without any further delay -- here's a look our potential first home!!!

The Specs:

- Age: 2009
- House size: 2,295
- Lot: 1/4 acre
- Bedrooms: 4
- Bathrooms: 2 1/2

The Pros:

- Great kitchen that opens up to family room
- All new carpets and paint
- Backyard that has definite potential
- Incredible neighborhood amenities: pool, playground, tennis, walking/hiking trails, lakes
- Too many others to list here (hence the offer we put on it...)

The Cons:

- The exterior needs a new coat of paint
- Not much yard (but as mentioned above - has great potential w/ what yard does exist)
- Nothing else major or that can't be changed down the road

So there you have it... our fingers are crossed as we wait to hear back from the bank. They seem to be in no rush, but we have a great feeling about this home and the neighborhood! Ultimately we know that it will work out if it's where God wants us. Having been in a similar situation only a couple weeks ago, and to have the offer fall through -- we are trying not to get too excited/attached just yet.

So until next time...
