Closing

We are closing on our house today!!! We got carpet installed yesterday and it looks great. We are super excited! We hope to get our keys tomorrow and we can start taping and painting and be moved in within the next two weeks or so. Just wanted to keep you in the current news! If anyone is an expert painter or mover, we have a job for you :)

Update!


It is looking like things are going well in the
financing department for our house. Our mortage guy called and said it is going to underwriting and he hopes we will be closed by Halloween! That would be so exciting! We were expecting it to take a while so we are elated at how quickly and well things have gone. I guess that means we had better put our 30 days notice here at our apartment soon. I was thinking I would have to wait to post pictures until it was officially our house, but remembered the home inspector took some. Sweet. This is the outside with apparently our neighbors car outside, so picture it without the weird blue hurst looking car. :)




This is the back, our little pad of cement haha.




Here is the living room. Its got the 3 bedrooms upstairs and the kitchen through the walkway there. The door you can see on the right there.. well the handle at least is to the garage. I hate the carpet so we bargained in a capet allowance so we get to put new carpet in. Also the whole house is white and we like color. So we are planning to paint and get new carpet before we move in.






Here is the kitchen, cute huh?

I am excited to pick paint colors and do fun things for our very own house! When we are done painting I will post more pictures.



I realized I haven't written about the details of the house. So allow me! It is a townhome with 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms and a one car garage. The kitchen is nice sized as you can see, which I really like. It is located behind Jordan Landing in West Jordan. It is in a complex called "The Pines at Jordan Landing." We are really excited and can't wait to move in! Well, we can wait to actually move, but the being in will be nice :)

It's Official!!

We finally accepted a final offer on a house!!! We are on our way to buying it! Now we just get to wait for all the financing and all of the closing problems. Ugh. I want to just move in now! We hope that the financing goes off without a hitch but with the economy right now I am afraid it won't. We'll see though. We are really excited!!!
