State of Affairs

So, our house has been on the market for a month.  Not one single showing!  I know the market is slow, but geez I thought we'd at least have some interest in the property.  The realtor says it is just a slow time right now. :(  I know the right person will come along...eventually! :)  

I have been keeping an eye on the real estate listings up north since we came back from our trip.  Unfortunately, there just isn't alot available in our price range.  We are almost to the point where we are ready to write an offer on one of the places we saw during our visit.  Of course it will be contingent on inspections and selling our house.   Hopefully, the seller isn't in a terrible hurry to sell and will be willing to wait until we sell our house.  If not, I guess we will have to resume our house hunting! :(  I'm trying not to stress about the timeline of selling our house, but with summer fast approaching it's kind of hard not too!

Back from Wisconsin!

We had a great trip up north!  Unfortunately, the house hunting wasn't that great. :(  You wouldn't believe the state of some of the houses we looked at!  We found one place that looks promising and our realtor is going to get more info for us about utilities, etc.    The house that we liked is the only house we saw that I could potentially see myself living in.  We may have to continue searching depending on what our realtor comes back to us with.  The housing prices are crazy up there, so, that limits our selection big time.  Hopefully we'll find something...worse case scenario is that we may have to rent for a year.  Right now, I am more concerned about selling our house!!  :o
