Home Sweet Home

The story of how we came to own 914 Gazley Circle...

We had been looking on MLS for many moons, and disregarded the houses that seemed overpriced. This happened for a certain period, until we were like "let's just look at these houses that have been on the market for a long time - no one is buying them, so maybe they will take our offer?". So we did. And we looked at identical houses back to back. One had upgrades, one did not. We went for the one that did not, hoping we could get a lower price if we used the upgrades of the other house to get a lower price. (They were priced the same).

So, we started low, did 2 other offers, and our last offer they accepted! I don't think either of us believed they would, and neither of us emotionally invested in the house. We knew we needed to hold it with an open hand.

Best feature - an already painted baby's room. :) don't worry, it'll be our guest room for a while.

I'm looking forward to setting up shop! We get the house June 4th. I never thought at the age of 24 I'd have a mortgage, but it's quite exciting! We are hoping to stay there until God calls us elsewhere. The house is His, everything we own, really is His, and so we are thanking God for this place.
It is a gift.
