The other part of our trip to South Dakota was fro house hunting. We had so very specific requests of our agent, and she worked hard to find just what we need. We looked at and eliminated several properties but in the end we made an offer and it was accepted. Now is the "FUN" part where the inspections, appraisal, and actual closing take place - in time.
Inspection went well with only a few issues to be resolved. Our very good friend, Dan, was there looking out for our best interests. It is so exciting to hear how much he is pulling for us to move in.
Next step, appraisal, will happen shortly.
Closing should be in early May.
We have purchased 5 homes in our lives and each time have felt that stress of "hurry up and wait" along with "is this really going to work out". We are feeling confident about our choices and have so much left that we want to do in Vermont, that we are hoping we will not dwell too heavily on making this happen.
If all goes as expected, Kevin will have a 40x50 wood shop and I will have a 14x22 studio. Those were the hard parts to accommodate in our search. The house is a multi-level and will be more than enough space for us and Kevin's dad. The grandkids will be able to have space to be kids, as well. We are just going to have to wait and pray that it all works out.
Once we know it appraises for at least the loan amount, I will share some more details.
