Pregnancy Community Chat Forum - We Got the House!!!!!!!!

I am so super excited right now! We found a house in our hometown which is about 15-20 minutes from where we currently live. Well, we went and talked to the owner of the house today because we were having some issues with the mortgage company. Thanks to the house we own right now they only wanted to give us a 95% loan so we would have to pay 5% down. We really just didn't have that much money to pay out right now, especially with the baby coming. Well, he agreed to do a rent-to-own deal until we could get the 100% loan so we will just pay him directly until then.

What's even greater is that our house payment will be going from $1450/ month to $600/month. OMG!!! I just can't believe how much money we are going to be saving. We will have absolutely no money problems now. Our house is getting put up on the market today. We were told to put it up for $174,900 so hopefully we get at least $163,000 cuz that's how much we owe. The house we are moving into is only going to cost us $90,000 which sounds so much better to me. The funny thing is the house we are moving into is about the same size of the house we live in plus it has a fence for our dogs. I am just so psyched right now. After we get to move in I will post pics of the new house.

congrats! that is so awesome! when do you move?

i'm a little jealous of you and kay. i would love to have our own house and more privacy than we have now. unfortunately you can't get anything for under $300k here, even our crappy 900 sq foot condo cost us $179k.

someday...

Were you talking about me or Suzy?

Anyways, no we own the house we live in. His parents are living with us right now though because they are in the process of building a new house and theirs sold before they thought it would. I think you were talking to Suzy though anyways.

Congrats on the new house. Such an exciting time!!! My husband and I moved last October from a single wide trailer into a house. It is quite a bit bigger than the trailer was, so we got lost the first few days!!!! Laughing

Congratulations to you! That is so great! I wish we could find a deal like that because the cheapest monthly payments we could find was $1200 right now. Someday. But I'm happy for you girl!

Congratulations!! That's so exciting! I hope you get your asking price. It's so fun decorating and arranging furniture in a new home (IMO Laughing

Tho when we moved to our new place, my mom painted the interior for us...my hubby works a lot, and I was pregnant. She also said she didn't trust either of us with a paint brush!
