At this point, we went back to the drawing board and began scouting out potential homes. We drove all over Hall County and looked at over 40 homes in a couple of days. Narrowing down options led us to about 8 to 12 that we thought we might want to see the inside of the house.
During our exploration of Hall County, we searched out one area in South Hall to look at a home that was eligible for USDA financing (100%). As we looked at this home, we saw a couple of other homes in the same neighborhood that had some potential.
We took a break from looking for a couple of days to celebrate Christmas Eve with MB's family and then on our own at home. What a wonderful time a WHITE snowy Christmas was!
Mary Beth did most of the online searching for homes, and looked at hundreds of homes to narrow down to our potential options! I looked at a lot less! Mostly, I looked at the houses MB had narrowed down.
For a couple of days, we went down to the farm to spend some time with my bros and my parents! Great times with wonderful family! Andrew and John had each gotten a Wii for Christmas, talk about funny...the Peake family playing Mario Cart....and my Dad dominates some Wii tennis!
Back to the house search, MB and I set it up with Jeff Knight to go look at houses on December 30th. We looked at 6 houses, and found a couple we really liked. The house that we liked the best was the only house still owner occupied that we had seen...and...wow...could we tell the difference...in a good way.
After praying about whether we should make an offer, we decided to do so. Long story short, they accepted our offer! We are in the process of buying the house now! The home inspection went well and barring any setbacks we will close Feb. 10th!
