I applaud your impulsivity. Some people drag that process out too long.

This is how the purchase went down. We first started viewing homes on Sunday afternoon. We loved the first house we visited so much that the other homes couldn't measure up. That evening, we decided that was the home we were going to buy, but the problem was that it was well over six figures from what I thought was our range. So I called my agent and asked her to just humor me (and to quiet my inner impulsive voice--or the voice from above) and show me other homes in that higher range the following day. The first home wowed us so much that we went with that one instead. Made our offer at 8:00 p.m. and with hardly any back and forth reached the deal by 9:30. Too think if I had been that overly impulsive I would have missed what is one heck of a home which I paid a smile ton less.

Is this first home the first home in the 2nd batch or the original first home?

It was the very first home we looked at on Sunday. I looked at the homes that were the same or similar to ours on the internet on Friday/Saturday to start a list, and that first home was not even on it because it was way out of my search parameters. We just happened to drive by it and saw the "for sale" sign and thought it was close to our range. The house we eventually bought was the first house we viewed yesterday--which was a result of second guessing or more likely divine intervention.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

That's the one you can get to by crossing the Creek on Harvard, right? Nice neighborhood. Watch out for hippies hanging out outside your gate, though. ;)

I am further east from there, closer to Sheridan with no gate. But I am still on the lookout for the hippies...What will you be wearing? :P

It doesn't seem like 5 yrs since your (old) area was built.

No, not interested.

1500 ft^2 would be big enough if we could throw a few things away once in a while.  Not talking about trash/garbage, it goes regularly.
