We have a house!
We put an offer on that house we liked and they made a counteroffer. They came back too high for us so we said we were no longer interested. The agent for the seller then came back and told us to make some sort of offer, so we did. The seller then came back with a good offer for us and we accepted. We were able to get the house for about 7% below asking price, so we were happy with that.

Here are some outside pictures of the place:

Here are some inside pictures:

The house has really pretty hardwood floors throughout, so we will have to get some rugs for sure. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths with 1210 square feet. As you can see, there is a one car detached garage with a carport, an outbuilding and even a greenhouse. I guess I will have to break out my horticulture degree now! There are raspberry bushes, thornless blackberry bushes, a plum tree and a grape vine. That should be interesting. There is also an outdoor brick BBQ at the end of the carport.
