We Have a House ... Pending Inspection :)

I have not updated for a couple of weeks because it has been a roller coaster. Dan and I found a nice home and put down an offer about a week or so ago. The selling agents for the house were total crooks and would not be straight with us on anything. (They call themselves the 'Tetro Team' and if you live in Atlanta, STAY AWAY from them!). Dan and I, along with our wonderful agent, Deanna, decided to back out of that deal on Friday because it was just too much hassle. We were pretty upset, but a house is a house, we knew we would find something else eventually. Well Friday night Dan and I decided to take a drive through the neighborhood that we have focused our house hunt on, and there was a house up for sale that we had not seen yet. It was a beautiful, 3 story, red brick house. We decided to write down the address and see how much it cost.

Well fast forward a day... the house was right in our price range and our agent arranged for us to see the house. Of course it was just as beautiful on the inside and it was outside.. and because God is so right all the time, the house had JUST gone on the market on Friday when Dan and I drove by. This house is so much prettier, bigger, homier (I don't even think that's a word) everything better that the other one. We put in our offer yesterday and it was accepted first thing this morning!!! God really is awesome and will put you right where he wants you!

Dan and I are soooo excited. We just have to have an inspection done to make sure there are no crazy cracks in the foundation or other really bad problems. We are sure there wont be because the family that lives in the house now has really taken care of it. Please pray that if this is meant to be our house, that all will go well. We get the keys at closing on September 30th!

I will post pictures as soon as we have an inspection done and we can officially call it our home!
