House Hunting Trip

Our house hunting trip went well. We found a house that we LOVED!!! It is a re-sell. Ready for immediate move in. Although "immediate" is a relitive term. It is more like 2 months. Anyway, It was incredible! The back yard was more amazing than the other. It was HUGE and it was level so our kids will actually have good large place to play. There is still forest behind it but it is forest as far as you can see. The house is up on a hill so we can can look off the deck and see forest, forever and ever. It is so cool!!!! I love it even more than the other. It has a cool sun room and a two sided fireplace going from the family room into the sun room. It is so cool!!! It has one bed room and a full bath on the main floor (great for guests. Hint, hint!) plus 4 bedrooms a huge loft and 3 full baths up stairs and then 3 bedrooms and a bath in the basement. With a huge room for a movie room! I am very excited and very glad we looked again. We are wanting to put an offer on it. I hope we can get it. Either way, we are moving from Arizona to Georga on the 24th. We were going to go the week of Tylers spring break. The 17th and go to DISNEY WORLD first and then end up in Georgia after that on Saturday the 22nd. But I realized that is Easter weekend and I can't leave Easter weekend. So we are leaving after easter on Monday the 24th. We are going to go to San Diego on the 16th & 17th and Disneyland on the 18th and 19th and then come home for a few days to see family before we leave for good. We are going to live in a little furnished apartment in Georgia until we get everything squared away with the house. It takes alot longer to buy a house than I thought. Tim's company will pay for the apartment for 1 Month so that will help. Hopefully we will only have to pay for 1 more month. Anyway, I am really excited. Things are gong well.

Back on the hunt.....

House prices are dropping in Georgia like they are dropping in AZ. By $30,000 to $40,000. We asked our current builder if they could do anything to match the other builders and they said no. They wouldn't bring their price down at all. Not even half way to $20,000. So we are back on the hunt for a new home. I have mixed feelings about it. But anyway. This is the home we are looking at getting now. It is a Pulte Home. It is beautiful inside! We looked at them last time but they were too expensive. Now they are cheaper than our house we got. So I am flying out Sunday for a week to look at homes again. But this is the one that I am really leaning twoards. It is 600 sq ft. bigger. It is really nice. The thing I am really going to miss about the other house is the AWESOME back yard and how close it is to the school. And the fact that we could move in, in 30 days. Where if we go somewhere else we will have to wait 4 to 6 months for it to be built unless we get a re-sale home. Which is also what we are going to be looking at. Wish us luck!
