[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 732567, member: 1550"] This is after years of renting. Where we live the crime is low and so are prices but right now it's a seller's market. Not enough homes and too many buyers. We have seen about ten homes and there was one we thought we would want before we saw it, but right before we saw that one we saw the best fit ever for us....cute, two bedroom, clean, updated, no fixer upper, a deck, a fence, just perfect for a retiring couple with a yard for gardening and dogs and neighbors on both sides with dogs.one young neighbor man was in his yard with his dogs and we spoke with him in a friendly way for a half an hour. It was so welcoming! He has four huskies! Says everyone on the block owns and loves dogs! It's a lil de sac. We lowballed our offer and expected a counter offer, but they accepted it! So now I am so excited, can't sleep, just so thrilled. Jumper was with us as she is off work until she starts her new job at Corrections next week. She loved it. When Princess visits again in August she can stay in our guest bedroom with the baby. We will be able to park our RV there too. The location between my two Wisconsin kids is perfect. I can meet Jumper for lunch or bring her lunch. We feel safe and through Jumper and our old h Neighborhood, we know all the police and one lives near us. I can't believe that a life that started out so challenging is turning out so good! Never ever give up on your life. Never think you are cursed or have bad luck or don't deserve what you desire. It's not true for anyone. We did not expect this turn of events. We expected mediocre. We got wonderful. You can too! I promise! Just follow your intuition. [/QUOTE]
