I've been tiptoeing toward my goal of buying a home for the past 5-6 years: saving up for the down payment, reading news about the market, looking at realtor listings and dreaming. Now it seems that all the tiptoeing has become a mad dash to the finish line. In the past few weeks, the boy and I have gone to open houses and realtor appointments and we ended up putting an accepted offer down on a lovely place. Hurray!
But anyone who's ever bought a home knows the stress doesn't end with an accepted offer. So I'm taking this week off blogging to handle everything on the homebuying front before our subject removal date. It's just too much to juggle, and quite frankly, my heart's not into blogging about summer sandals and nail polish when I'm preoccupied with something as big as this.
I'll return next week with new posts. In the meantime, wish me luck!
Congratulations Lisa! I'm so happy for you!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you both, Lisa! Buying your fisrt home is an exciting but totally nervewracking process, but in the end, it's very much worth it :)

Congratulations!! Hope everything goes well for you. Enjoy the process! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck. I really hope it works out and I know exactly how you feel right now. Just remember to breathe once in awhile... I'm waiting to find out whether I'm moving to Vancouver (which would happen in about three weeks, aiyaa!) so I'm in a similar place right now. Sending good vibes your way :)
