Putting in an Offer!

We're putting in our very first offer on Sunday!

After watching the market for over a year, we're finally taking the plunge.

It's a low-ball offer, so we'll see what happens. We would be thrilled with this house, just depends on how low the seller is willing to go.

Although I'm happy you found a house that you like, I don't understand the logic of buying a house a few days after renewing your lease for six months. Do you really want to and can you afford to be paying both rent and a mortgage at the same time?

so, how did it go??? Did they except?

January isn't 6 months - it'll take up to 60 days for the process to go through, so there will be maybe 2-3 months of overlap. Not ideal but not a huge overlap and perhaps the long-time landlord will cut them a break and let them out a bit early. PLus, updates can be done to the house during that time, if the Dog household needs to do some remodeling.

Good luck! Max. 350K sounds like a responsible plan.
