Buying a House and Other Updates
Hi all! We have been keeping busy here in the Simbeck Household. As you have all probably noticed there hasn’t been much posting.
Well, I have been working 3 jobs (my regular job, teaching at CCAC and doing some development on the side). Kaylea has been trying to hold down the fort (she is going a great job, although she might not believe me).
On a bit of a whim she decided to take the flying leap and see if we were in a position to purchase a house. Guess what! We were! And we are!
So we started looking, we found a great morgage person and a great real estate agent, and saw a few great homes, some not so great homes, and fantasized about a few we could never afford (we can dream can’t we?).
We made an offer, had it accepted, we have gotten through most of our contengiencies in about 5 days. All that is left is for the morgage to get finished up (I think those are the right words) and with a dash of luck, we will close at the end of the month.
For those interested, the house is in West Mifflin (the only bad part is no FIOS).
What a whrilwind it has been since January!
