house hunting MADNESS!!


Mike and I had a crazy day yesterday! We have been house hunting for about a week now with a realtor in Nampa. On Tuesday we went out and looked at a bunch of houses and there was one that i absolutely loved. We got pre-approved through a lender for enough to pay for this house that i loved and then went back to look at it yesterday. Well when we got there, the realtor got into the lock box and the key was missing. She called around and found out that the house had sold and that no one had bothered to update it in the systems! So i was really upset! I was in love with this house and now it was gone! Well we went back to her office to look and see if any new listing had come up. There were two more so we went to look at them.
The first was trashed! The people knew that they were gonna lose thier house and so they kicked in all the cupboards and recked the whole house! The next house we looked at was perfect! it was a cute house and the floorplan worked out great for us! But then i look out the back window and realized that the yard was like two feet wide and i couldnt deal with looking at a fence all day long out the window! I was pretty upset because Mike loved the house and i did too except for the yard! Then we realized that the house that is backed up to this ones yard was the very first house we ever looked at. So I asked if we could look at it again because the yard was HUGE! So we went inside and realized that it was the exact same floor plan minus a wall that was never put in to make the bedroom downstairs! Well my dad has built a house and so has mikes dad so we knew that they could put in this one wall for us! I was sold! I wanted this house so bad!!!! So we went back to her office to make sure that it was still available!
Well it was still available, but there were 7 other offers on the house and they were only accepting offers for another hour. And we had to be pre-approved through wells fargo because that is who the house was through! Stupid wells fargo! Well every person who could handle a mortgage loan was at a meeting in boise! and we only had an hour left! We couldnt get a hold of anyone but still wrote up an offer anyways hoping that we might be able to get it in! Well 20 min before it was due a WF person called us and just said that he knew Debbie and trusted her and if we were pre-approved somewhere else he would just write us a letter saying that we were through him too! Without even taking any information. So we got the offer in with not a second to spare!
Who knows if we will actually get it but it was a fun and exciting day trying to get this all done on time! We made a very strong offer that was 10000 over asking price, so we are hoping that we get accepted! I love this house! But with 7 other offers, who knows how high they offered for this house! I feel really good about it though!
So we will find out on Monday evening if our offer was accepted! If not, we will not get too upset because we know that the right house will come up! We have really been enjoying this whole process of searching for our home! Its kind of stressful but its so intense and exciting! So i will keep you posted on if our offer gets accepted!!!
