And So the Search Continues
We found a great little, Victorian house in town to buy. It was within our price range, but all of the down payment and closing costs would have stretched us pretty thing financially. The backyard was beautiful, with fruit trees and flowering bushes. There were wood floors, too.
The owner counteroffered and wanted an answer from us by noon today. We were going to have to work with our banker and realtor to figure out some last minute changes to the offer they made. Between all of the back and forth negotiating and the stress this house would put on our finances, coupled with some health issues we’re working through at the moment, we decided last night to forego this beautiful little home. It’ll be good for someone else, Lord willing.
So, we keep looking and hope that God throws the perfect house and opportunity into our laps.
