The house is just so gorgeous Lindsay! I think you all did the right thing! I hope the condo sells quickly!

Lindsey, the house is just beautiful!!! I'm soooo jealous!! I have always wanted a big old two story home......just like that one!!!! It will be so nice when you decide to have kids!!!

Thank you all for all of the support! I am so terrible at making decisions and all my parents will say is "Do what makes you happy!" All of you commenting on how big and beautiful the house is really gave me the push to go forward with it.

This morning Scott told me he had a dream that we had the house, and we had a baby girl and he had to keep carrying her up and down all the sets of stairs, and he also had to bring a baby gate with him to each floor because we didn't have enough for every staircase. When he told me, I thought he was worried that it really will be too much work with young kids, so I said "Did it suck?" and he said "No, it was awesome!"

Our condo should be listed today, so as soon as it's up I'm going to post a link here!

Congratulations Lynsey!! Is it final yet? Have you for sure gotten it?

We for sure have agreed on a price and that's about it.... we have a few conditions that need to be met first. Tomorrow we have a meeting with the bank so the financing should be in place by Monday - that's one condition. We have a house inspection scheduled for tomorrow evening, and that's another condition. The last condition is the sale of the condo. That's the one I'm worried about. The sellers have agreed to give us 6 weeks to sell the condo, but if they have another offer in that time, they can give us 48 hours to sell the condo, or remove all conditions. We NEED to sell the condo because the profit will be going towards closing costs, etc. So basically if they get another offer they want to entertain before our condo is sold, we're out of luck.

Wow Lindsey, this reminds me of when I bought the home I am in!
I wasn't looking either, but saw this house on the market and went to see it, just for a 'looksie'.. well I fell in love with it right away. It felt like home. So I put in a offer, put my other house up for sale. The other house sold fast. Actually the first guy that looked at it bought it! His first look, he said the master bedroom was too small. So I figured other people would think the same... it was small! So I took my queen bed out, replaced it with a twin. A few days later, he asked to see it again.
And made a offer! Sold!!!
I had a few people wanting the house I had put in a offer for, owners wanted it gone today. Had a few scares, but I got it!
Still here, still feels like home, still love it.

Anyway, good luck to you, your condo will sell!!! Then you will have your dream home. So exciting!!!

OK Lindsey...I'm holding my breath for you!! Only 48 hours notice if they get another offer makes me nervous, but it HAS been on the market all this time. Hmmm... It's a good thing you and Scott are young and can take all this stress
