We got a house!

As previously mentioned, we have been house shopping lately. I really did not want it to be a long drawn out process, so I got organized, met a Realtor, and we looked at about 25 houses in 3 days. We found one in particular in North Ogden that we kept coming back to. We ended up really loving it and decided to make an offer. They accepted our offer and we are now on our way to being homeowners!! Yesterday we had our home inspection and it went really well. The house is about 40 years old, but has been VERY well taken care of. The only problems found were things you would expect to see in a 40 year old house...like small cracks in the driveway, and the railing spacing is just a bit too wide for today's current code. But all in all it passed and we are ready to move forward! The house is 2050 square feet, (4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 living rooms, dining room, kitchen, covered deck) and is a split entry 2 level home, on 1/4 acre lot. It has 2 large storage sheds and 1 small shed on the property too. It is located about 2 blocks from the Elementary school (which is rated 2nd best in the district) The house is currently occupied so they are packing and we are packing. The closing date is set for October 30th, and moving day is November 3rd. I will post pictures when I can get them. The photos that were online are no longer available.
Well I had better get packing! Toodles!
