- went to bank, ran into old classmate from BIO102 (who is the bank manager)
- - at bank, received Cashiers check for 10k
- took check to Northstar Settlement LLC in Falls Church
- handed check over to very nice people
- signed a bunch of documents
- Become a home owner ....
- went to Home Depot for shopping
- - spent 2.5k on appliances and 100 on new locks
- went to Petco for friend's dog food
- home
- talked to mom
- update on lj.
HOLY S***! im a homeowner!
the purchase? an end unit townhouse.
3 floors
3 bedrooms
3.5 bathrooms
Deck (back and front)
Patio
Basement with walkout and one bedroom and bathroom
Good sized kitchen
Carpeted floors
and its MINE now!
so i made a plunge... now i have car payments and mortgage, which is kind of weird at the age of 24.
The townhouse is in Centreville off of Green Trails Rd, which is off of Rt. 28 (near the movie theatre and New Braddock Rd). it's a small community that's clean and organized. there's a community pool and 'multi-use' courts. plus some good places to run if i ever want to pick that up again.
i'm super excited and yet terrified at the same. but i think it's going to be ok.
=====EDIT======
Forgot to mention a couple of things: it only has one parking space... wtf? i mean really, its a 3 floor house with 3 bedrooms. even if it were meant for a family, it's pretty much the norm that family's have 2 cars now. gah, oh well.
also i won't actually be moving in for a while until me mom is at least set up in a couple of ways.
