House

N's recent e-mail to Nonna describes our recent progress... "There have been some interesting developments on our end recently. I'm not sure if Goldie has put anything on the blog yet but, we have found the house. It is right behind the Franklin Fairway house and was built in 1960. There are 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a huge greatroom, 3,666 sq/ft., and an indoor grill :). The square footage is a little misleading because it's a tri-level. There is, however, a lot of storage space which makes up for the lack of a basement under the main part of the house.

Long story short, we put in an offer that was pretty low and 2 other people also put in offers on the same day. Amazingly, they countered ours. We recountered at $175,000 (that's $47.75 sq/ft.) and the seller's and their attorney accepted. This is a short sale so we are currently waiting for their bank to sign off. In the meantime we have started the loan process and met with our loan officer yesterday evening."

This last weekend we worked on this house...
