House Hunting

[professionalhenchman]

So, as of this afternoon, Sarah and I are officially pre-approved for a $375,000 loan to buy a house.  This means that we'll be starting to look in Davis as of this weekend - there's an open house Saturday before we leave for the party which looks interesting.  The prospect of buying a house is both exciting and scary all at once.

Please see Kay's journal RE: WOO HOO!

SQUEEEEE!

I'm so happy for you both! And hugs for the scary part.

Woot!

And congrats.

Does this mean I should set aside some tomato plants for you? ;p

That's awesome. Does it have to be in Davis? See Kay's journal for something I think might be perfect. Except it's in Woodland, which makes the bike commute longer.

Cool. Good luck!

Wow! (Very jealous.) Good luck finding a place you love!

Welcome to the chaos. P and I have been looking since late January. Have bid on four houses since then, only to have three bid away from us and the other the bank wanted us to pay more.

Best of Luck and be sure not to get too emotional, remember this is a business transaction. There will be more houses.

Good luck to you as well. Our biggest worry just now is that our landlady here wants to know now whether we'll be staying another year - since that's not something we can commit to, we'll need to either find somewhere to buy & move in by the end of August, or be stuck trying to find a month-to-month rental somewhere (probably not Davis, given how housing here works), and moving a couple of times. Not the end of the world, but it'd be annoying.

Good luck! I bought my first house last spring and it was both exhilirating and terrifying at the same time. Hope you find something great!

Yay! Are you guys sure that you wouldn't actually prefer to get a house in London? :) Good luck!
