Adventures in house hunting

Aug 01, 2011 20:05

The buyers who were supposed to come by the apartment today never showed up, which blew a giant hole in the middle of when I was supposed to be sleeping. I am displeased, but the real estate agent assures me this will not happen again. Time will tell.

I am going back to see the place with which I fell in love tomorrow afternoon. I am taking the Maternal Unit with me, because she has bought and sold lots of houses over her lifetime and I trust her experience in these matters. Her opinion won't make or break the decision to buy, but I want another pair of eyes there in order to potentially dump a bucket of ice water on my head if I need it.

I am about 90% sure that I will be making an offer by this time tomorrow, although that doesn't preclude my continuing to visit other houses during the negotiations. I really hope that no one else buys the house from under me, and that the current owners and I will be able to reach an agreement that's suitable for all.

The short version of the story is that I'm trying very hard to remain level-headed and objective and calm about this whole thing, but really all that's happening is that I have "HOUSE!!!" \o/ \o/ \o/ "HOUSE!!!" on loop in my head. ;)

life stuff, nesting, domestic stuff, house
