Private Sale

We went and viewed two houses this morning while the kids were in school. One house is investor owned and the other is a private seller. We loved the private seller house, and offered on it. Yep, that's our seventh offer since April. Well, actually it's our eighth if you count the one that was accepted back in April but we walked away from it because we felt like we settled and were rushed. Anyhow, we both really want this house, although there are a couple of quirks that aren't perfect but we have to give somewhere right? The house hasn't even been listed for 24 hours and has multiple offers on it. I haven't shed a tear yet about any of this but if we lose this one, I think it's going to break me. We have friends that live within shouting distance of this home too, that would be great to be near them. They also have a 3yr old. We've had many playdates already.

I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep this weekend thinking about this. Wondering if this is the one that was meant to be? This homelessness is starting to wear on the both of us. It's good thing the kids are happy, that keeps up moving forward one day at a time.

Oh, the other house we viewed was "doable" too but the living space was kind of small and ordinary. The backyard was huge and the pool was nice but.... we love the private sale house.
