We did it! We bid on a house! Updated 1/7/08!!!! And again 1/8/08

I can't believe it!! I couldn't sleep all last night because my brain kept thinking about it. It's small... only 2 bedrooms but it has a full basement.

Keep your fingers crossed... hopefully I'll know something within the next day.

Update 1/7/08:

Ok, so she counter offered and it's close to our figure! Chat Icon I am SO SCARED, excited, and nervous. I don't know what to do. On the one hand, it has so much charm. I could see living in it. It doesn't need much work to move in and what it does need is totally doable. However, it's small- 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. We would have the basement, which spans the whole length of the house. My dad and DH could finish it. So it does double our living space from 990 sq. ft upstairs to 1980 sq. ft. I guess I always envisioned something bigger but it does have charm. I'm rambling because I am scared. I've never been so scared in my life- not even when marrying DH! Anyone else feel this way- have second thoughts?

Here is a picture of the dining room (she has it cluttered beyond belief)

View into the kitchen- needs work but isn't terrible. DH and my father could seal up the other entrance and we could put counters all the way around

Update 1/8/08

We're going to do another walk through again Thursday evening. We contacted the realtor to ask if we could do another walk through and she called back within 5 minuntes! So Thursday it is. LIHP is also shopping for mortgages for us. So... if all goes well... I think this will be our house! Keep your fingers crossed. Thanks for all of your comments and suggestions! If we get it, we will definitely finish the basement and create a few rooms down there.
