SOLD

I haven't mentioned anything on the blog, but it appears we sold our home! Last week, Brent ran into a friend, who is a real estate agent, and she had no idea that we had purchased a house to renovate and planned to put our current home on the market. Turns out, she knew of a single 35-year old male looking for a house. The house we're in now is the ultimate bachelor pad -- projector with large screen, bar, outdoor cooking area, etc. So... she brought the guy over for a "showing" last Monday -- which our house was not in show-ready condition to say the least (since it's not on the market). Therefore, I took off work on Monday to organize and clean and we finished just in time to get out of there before they showed up at 6:15pm. The guy returned on Wednesday to take pictures and then viewed it again yesterday at 11am. By Sunday afternoon, we had ourselves an official offer!!! Brent is meeting with the realtor today to review the paperwork. Cross your fingers and toes that the deal goes through!

On another note, you should see the other house!!! WOW. They are moving so fast. Of course, demo is the easiest part so we'll see how fast they are once they start the actual remodel. The house right now is pretty much down to the studs and the outside no longer has any landscaping. All of the shrubs were removed so it's looking pretty barren. I'll post pictures tonight or tomorrow.

hugs,
kk and db
