Well, the loan officer will actually be next Wednesday, so no developments for a month or so. I can post a couple of pictures of the house, though!

And by month, I mean week. LOL.

Thanks for the compliments on the house Gwen, Freke, and Claritek! We''re really excited about it!

 

[sammyj]

Oh wow!!! I love how it''s up on a hill...and the VIEW!

Can I move in? I''ll take the room with the lowest ceilings (I''m 5''2")!

 

[FrekeChild]

You''ll have to fight me for it sammyj. I''m 5''2 too...

 

[somegirl932]

That''s a seriously adorable house.

Where are you guys located sammyj ?

 

[Still_Waiting]

WOW!!! That''s some REALLY exciting news! (Both tidbits!) Keep us updated!

(SO is 6''5 and the low ceiling height of his house has always been his one regret. So, "Yay!" for tall ceilings!)

 

[Still_Waiting]

I didn''t read through the whole thread...

WOW, WOW, WOW! It''s gorgeous! Can''t wait to hear how it all goes! Good luck! I wouldn''t be able to pass that place up either!

Freke, it''s on!!!!!

(although I''m about 100% sure you''d beat me down with your pinky

)

somegirl, I''m in Canada....far from LP but willing to travel to live in a house near a body of water that doesn''t cost an arm and a leg!!

I love it!
Lots of dust for you!

When my SO and I bought our first house, i couldnt stop smiling, so i know how you feel! It can be a thrilling and VERY unnerving process at the same time. Best of luck, I hope you get it!

LP, I''m seriously drooling. It''s amazing. DH and I are 2-4 years away from buying a house, but I just sent him photos of this one with the words "...when we buy, I want one just like this!"

Preferably in your neighborhood, too- that view is WOW.

 

[icekid]

what an amazing house. I hope it works out for you LP...

That view........

 

[ladypirate]

Thank you guys so much for all the positive comments! We're really hoping that everything works out, but we'll know more after we talk to the loan officer on Wednesday.

EBree--isn't your DH very tall as well? He'd love the high ceilings! K couldn't believe that he could stand up straight upstairs!

How are you guys liking Portland? We should try to get a gtg going soon--before long you'll have your hands full with a newborn!

 

[MaggieB]

That house is incredble. What is the view? I really hope that you get it.
