Taking a step forward

Well we have been looking at homes since we moved back in December. We have even got us a Realistate agent. And....drum roooollllll. We found a house! We got approved for are lone that was easy and then we got are home. The first time that we went looking for homes we had found a house that we really liked and after we left we talked about how much we liked it and that we thought we would make an offer. Well that night at dinner I got a text from are Agent that said there was two other offers that were going to be made and one was over asking price. So that house was a no go. A few days later we went out again and looked at some more homes a lot of them were houses that would have to have things done to them like planting grass, painting, new carpet or tile flooring. They just weren't for us. So we new what we wanted and it was house that we had looked at before that was are second choose the time before. So we looked at the house again and it just felt like home. We told her that wanted to get the ball rolling on the house and signed paper work that night. Well to are surprise that same night some else had looked at our house and wanted to make an offer as well. So we pulled are thoughts together and worked with are agent and came up with a game plan. Well that plan worked out the other couple withdrew there bid and the house owners even lowered the price of the home. Now we just have to wait for all the paper work and all the other things that come with buying a home and we should be able to move into are new home at the end of March:) We are so exited and feel so blessed that we were able to get are first home. We can't wait to start decorating and making it are place.
