dancerjodiLast night we signed an offer from someone to buy our house. We also looked at a house, loved it, made an offer, and they accepted and signed it. Freaky. Its a couple of blocks from Moody and we really, really liked it. Here's a URL: http://home.comcast.net/~waltham/
Freaky.
Today I need to fax over the pre-approval letter, I scheduled the inspection (will be next Monday), called my lawyer and generally will be nuts until we sign a P&S (at some point next week).
The thing that sucks, is we were preapproved for a certain amount but the letter we got says we were approved for less (he mentioned something about it saying a lower amount so that brokers didn't try and sell us more house than we wanted . . . I asked him to just set the letter to the full amount so he misunderstood me). It figures - the mortgage broker is on vacation until next week. I left a message for someone else in his office but haven't heard back yet . . . dammit! I was supposed to fax this thing 2 hours ago.
*Breathes*
Now here's hoping there aren't any major issues with either inspection, and that both sides get mortgages, and that we can close. The estimated close date at this point is June 30.
I feel like my insides are all mixed up. It was also difficult to sleep last night. My throat is all scratchy too. Yeah, whine whine . . . but I'm so excited about the prospect that this may all work!

House stuff
Date: 2004-04-23 08:12 am (UTC)Its very neat - not too big, not too small. We're giving up some size (its got the same # of rooms but they are a teeny bit smaller) for a WAY better location. Also, we won't have to do anything to the place.
So like, we'll be neighbors sort of :) We'll be in another part of Waltham but not too far away. I'd love to give you guys a tour of the city at some point if you're interested (followed by ice cream from Lizzy's, who are awesome). Also, my parents (who live 6 blocks from this Victorian) have a swimming pool . . . not a bad thing with the summer on its way :)
Now I just need to get the rest of my friends to move to Waltham ;)

That would be great! We were driving around there the other day and realized we don't really know where anything is. :)
