House Update

It's time for our quarterly house update. So, our current house has been on the market for just over 6 months now. In the last quarterly update I posted that we weren't seeing a lot of interest in the house and I would say it is still the same. A few people have looked at it but not very many.

Over the last month or so we have been faced with the decision of what to do about our house. With Baby Caleb due in March we know we'd have to take the house off the market for several months. I cannot imagine keeping my house clean and being able to get out for showings with a toddler and a brand new baby. We'd also have to take it off the market a couple months before Caleb is due because we wouldn't be able to accept any offers that would involve closing in February or March because we don't want to move that close to my due date.

So, after much prayer, wise counsel and consideration we decided to buy a house before ours sold. We looked at every house in town in our price range and found a great choice that we can totally picture our family in. After a great negotiation process we accepted a counter offer last week. We had a good inspection today and are set to move in January. I'm so excited.

As far as our current home we will keep it on the market through the spring and early summer in hopes that someone will buy it. If not, we will look for a renter. While our house might not be what buyers are looking for right now we're pretty sure renters would love it.
