Home, Sweet, Home

We're in escrow!! After one year of searching, 11 offers (4 times as first backup), and many, many Sundays of open houses, we are moving forward. We feel like this house has been gifted to us. We didn't actually pursue this one. Instead, the listing agent on our 9th offer called us up. We were first backup on that particular home. Both he and the owner really liked us and wanted us to have the home, but there was a better offer. But the agent remembered us and suggested to the owners to offer us the chance to make an offer on this home before it was even listed.

Cute little house built in the 1940's in a family-friendly neighborhood walking distance to both Winchell's donut house and Trader Joe's. Three bedrooms and two baths.

It has its drawbacks. Primarily...it's located here...


...right next to the freeway. It also lacks a garage and a formal dining room, but we can afford it and it's in the boundaries of a great elementary school. So we are thankful and hoping that we can secure a good loan and move forward with no hitches.

Here it is:
