Let's Sell Our House!

So, we were looking to refinance to get a better rate and decided to check out what was on the market. We found a house in a great neighborhood and decided to check it out just for fun. Luckily for us, we know a great realtor and she was able to show us the house. Dustin's Aunt Sandy helped us buy our house before so she was happy to help us look at another one. From the moment we walked in we knew we loved it. The question was, would they accept an offer and would our house sell?? We put in an offer on Monday, it was accepted Tuesday. We had to list our house!!! We had a lady hired to take pictures of the house and she did a great job, but we had to get it ready for her. We thought we'd have a couple of days, but unfortunately, we had from 8:00 pm on Wednesday night until 11:00 Thursday to get it ready. Talk about hard work!! We de-cluttered and cleaned and removed excess toys and furniture. Our house looked great on the inside by about 1:30 am. At 6:30 the next morning, Dustin was out cleaning the siding (this was January, mind you). It all paid off and our house looked the best I've ever seen it. We listed it on the following Monday and it showed 3 times Tuesday night. By the next morning, we had a full price offer from the first couple who walked through it. Sold after one day on the market!

Dustin and Sandy...a meeting of the minds.

Ok, let's do this!

We moved on March 17th, closed March 19th, and it is starting to feel like home. We have sod down and things on the walls, but we still have some work to do organizing the basement and garage. I'll post some pictures soon.

Overall, we feel so blessed to have been able to take this journey. I cried a few tears when we left our house for the last time. We brought all of our babies home to that house and have so many wonderful memories there, but I know we'll make new memories at this house. We have had so much help from our family and friends. We couldn't have done it without them. God is good!!
