[QUOTE="Ephchap, post: 87843, member: 27"] I didn't want to jinx it, so waited until the closing, which was this morning. difficult child is a homeowner! He bought a 2 bedroom condo. He and his girlfriend will be moving in, and decorating the second bedroom for the arrival of their baby (my first grandchild) at the end of February. Once they discovered they were going to be parents, he and girlfriend applied to a nearby apartment building, but he was turned down after they did the background check. It's a tough lesson to learn that your felony from 17 years old will follow you for the rest of your life - with jobs, and with apartments, etc. But he didn't fall apart. They started looking at small condos in the area and found a mortgage broker to work with. Even though difficult child just started his new job a few months ago, he does have a good credit score, so was successful in obtaining a small mortgage. It's an adorable condo - 2 bedrooms, a living room, dining room and kitchen, and even a small little laundry room. He's waiting until his 90 days probation are up at his new job before setting up a hearing date to try to get his license back, so that's the next step. I'm so very proud of my son for stepping up to the plate with all his decisions lately and just wanted to share my good news with my "cd family". [img]:smile:[/img] Deb [/QUOTE]
