Looking at Houses.. Excited!
So, thought I would let you know, Mike and I are looking at houses.. baby steps! A couple weeks ago, he let me know that he's on a listing and currently seeing what's out there. He also told me he wanted me in it, and he would not buy a house without telling me and wants me to be involved, move in. And for him to say something like that, it is HUGE.
How exciting is that? We met up with his brother and wife over the weekend, his wife was telling me how excited she was for us, and that it's a big deal. And how good it will be for us to finally live together and be on our own and do our own thing. She also mentioned how important it was to find good location, especially school system(s).. We agreed on what we want, we are looking for a decent sized backyard, big garage/barn or shed (mostly for Mike), basement, front porch, attic, wood floors... colonial style, maybe? We found a few we liked, but we still need to wait for his credit/loan to be approved, of course. And,I know, we are going backwards! ;)
I have a really good gut feeling, and my gut feeling has never steered me wrong. We'll see what happens.
Any tips?
