House News

In case you haven't heard, our house is now under contract. We close on July 28th and are searching for a new home now. And no, Zellyn, Bevin, Ash, Carrie, Ben, and Jen - we're not interested in moving to East Point!! ;o)

It's pretty cool how the whole thing happened. We had planned on putting the house on the market at the end of June, and I was seriously dreading trying to keep it "show-ready" (read: CLEAN) and having people come through while taking care of an infant at the same time.
Well, while Mark's parents were visiting we got a call from our agent, Julie, saying that another agent had called her with a client interested in looking at the house. The client had seen another home with the same floorplan in our neighborhood that she liked, but it was on a sloped lot and she didn't like that. We have a much nicer lot. The agent did his homework and saw that our house had been on the market but that we had pulled it off and called to see if we were still interested in selling. Long story short - the client came to see the house, liked it, and made an offer. We are now under contract and we don't even have to go through the listing/showing process! Yippee!

Now we just have to find a new home. We've already been out looking at some houses, and this weekend we're going to see a few more plus re-look at a few we've already seen. Hopefully we'll come to a decision this weekend, because we only have a little over a month. If we can't move into a new place by July 28th, we'll be rooming with the Spoelstras!!
