Life has been a whirlwind this past week! We just started looking for our first home recently, and didn’t expect to find something so soon… but we did! It’s a new construction building in Chicago’s West Loop, and even though it won’t be completed until July/August of 2008, there has still been a flurry of activity. Meeting with realtors, MAJOR number crunching, upgrade negotiation/discussion, contract signing, large checks being written… *gulp* ![]()
We won’t know for a few days whether or not the developers will accept our contract, so right now we are on pins and needles. Due to all our wedding expenses, we requested that we be allowed to pay the deposit in 3 increments within the next 70 days or so. Hopefully that won’t be an issue for them. Eeks, please keep your fingers crossed for us!
fingers crossed for you!
we just went through this too! we should close next week on our newly built home!!
