My wife and I have been house viewing the last couple of days because I landed a job on Monday. We moved fast because its a sellers market right now with low inventory and my commute would be brutal otherwise. We made an offer on a home today that we really liked and it was accepted! We've been living in our current 1 bedroom apartment for 4 years, so ready to gain living space. As long as nothing comes up during inspections or other problems our move in date will be a little under two months from now.

Everything is about to change.

Cool, congratulations! What kind of place are you moving in to, if you don't mind me asking? A house instead of an apartment since you said house hunting? How many floors? Rooms? I'm always curious about this kind of stuff. :lol:

Congrats on the job, congrats on the house!

Once you close on the place the home ownership experience is surprisingly painless.
