96 2012

Welcome to 2012 folks.
It has been a good start so far, how about yours?

I don't have tons to report on the house front.
Ok, I cant do it.
Its not true.
Lots to report. Yet nothing all at the same time.

1. The Home builder has been bought out by a bank.
2. My mortgage company is no longer doing mortgages.

What does this mean- well- I guess in the world of home building/buying nothing is 100% clear, or certain for that reason.

1. I can still get my house, same product, same price, same everything. However I am going to get a 3rd party warranty on the house in the company has issues again.
This is likely a blessing for me, since I am on a long timeline, and don't want to get into the house before my lease is up, I now how the luxury of deferring as needed :). But September is still the goal.

2. As for the Mortgage company. I don't really care what company I use, as long as I can stay with the precious lady that had been helping me. She is like having a mom with a LOT of money. And advice too!! The good news is this is an election year, and the chances of interest rates going up a lot are slim to none!! So, hooray for politics!

That all being said, I will likely go under contract in the next few weeks, and hope to get an even better deal than I had planned.

Oh- 96 2012? What is that all about you ask? Well, I had nothing exciting as a title. And had to get my now 96 years young Grandma in here somehow!

I have the BEST Grandmother in the world. ( no , I am not biased, I am just accurate) She is so excited for my house adventure and very supportive! Her 96 years of life experience, will be priceless to me throughout this!! Here is a pic from her birthday earlier this month!
