 birolThe bank is bananas !

 birolAnyways , back to reality ....
 
 
 According to the sales lady who is very buddy buddy with the banker we talk with, it is a done deal. Yesterday at the bank she had told me that it would be a difficult one, and when I asked, if it would not go thru, she had replied with a I did not say that.
 
 She told the sales lady that she doesn t see a problem with the application, so we celebrated little bit last night. But, until they say it is formally approved, of course it is not approved. Today I am taking a few more pieces of paper and we should be done with the bank. We have to put down an offer this Saturday or Sunday, NOT conditional on selling our town house, which is scary. They have only 4 lots left and they are definitely not accepting conditional offers .
 
 A real estate agent is coming this afternoon to talk to us, We will find out if it is worth what we think it is pretty soon.
 
 Fingers still crossed.
 
 P.S. I forgot to mention, the lady at the bank made me go for a bigger house then we had planned for. She calculated tons of numbers and said, for 70 bucks a month, if you are going to balk, don t buy any houses, if you are buying a house  you should buy this humongous one (for us). So we are going for a 1,800 SQ feet house now. Which is really big compared to our house.

 birolAWESOME!!! [:)]  I m so happy for you!  Don t worry about the final approval, because I don t think they would go through all this initial paperwork for you if there was not a great chance of the loan actually going through!
 
QuoteDW is already packing and making plans for the move, arrrrgggghhhhhhh. I hope she doesn t get a big dissapointment  

 Babette is just " acting"  in faith!  Sometimes you just know!

 birolThanks Acts 2:38 girl , I am so excited, I couldn t sleep :) Yesterday we looked at the house in and out, it is just about to be bricked, it was a great feeling. Of course we don t get to choose the brick colour, but, it is an off color red variant, and I think we will learn to like it :)
 
 The really good thing is (I hope this goes thru, we still have to discharge our current mortgage and pay a fine) The ensuite is the optional expensive one with with two sinks, oval tub and a seperate shower. Costs 3,000 dollars. They already framed it that way, and I don t see them ripping it off this late now. We did not want it that way,  so we are getting it free hopefully [:D][:D][:D].
 
 By the way, How wide is the PU ? We are thinking that the single garage is wide enough to get the PU and the minivan in. It is 15 5"   wide, Minivan is 6 4"  wide, If the PU is around 7  only, it is great ! We can park them both inside !

 birolhmmm... I ll have to measure it later on today bacause I m really not sure!  I ll have DH get back to you about your other questions too.  We ve been really busy looking for a house for us around here too, and our new septic system has been going in for about a week, and our buyers home inspector came yesterday.  Not a dull moment around here!  [;)]  I m sure you can relate!

 birolcheck out the poll forum birol, you are included in one of the new polls!  [:D]

birol

 birolThanks acts 3;38 girl. If I can get that I would appreciate it very much.  And Of course I know what you are going thru now. ( month ago we had to clean and make our house presentable for a tenant, and now we started a mad rush to do the same with this one. It is just not fair at all.  When everyoen was selling their houses, I was going, yehaaa suckers they gotta clean and worry and I can just relax in my Town House, guess what, I am the bugger sucker, Now we gotta pull this off so quickly ......
 
 
 We keep moving and moving costs money, I think we are not loosing any money on this move though cause in 9 months the value of the house went up to offsett the cost of real eastate agents fee and the closing costs (Thanks God, otherwise we would never ever be able to move).
 
 By the way, buyers inspector means you have an offer !!! You kept that a secret from us, Congrats !
