It was only after my hubby running across a rent to own property in Ooltewah, TN that we decided it was time for us to move out of this apartment. We've already talked to the owners, and we are in the works. They are wanting to unload the house quickly, and we are more than ready to pick up the payments. We actually will be paying less that we are now in our apartment, so figure that one out. This all came about last week, Friday we decided we would go ahead with it.
We don't need a loan, because it is rent to own, but we are getting a small one for furniture, because we only have a bed room suit and a living room suit. We have no appliances of our own, nor do we have well, anything else LOL!
It is an older home, but it will be great to have for the our first one. because inside, it is really a blank canvas. So within the next two weeks we will moving in, as soon as the folks in there now can get the remainder of there stuff moved.
Wednesday, they will be signing the home over to us for us to start picking up the payments, and maybe next Monday, we will start moving in.
I have not been happy in a good while, I mean smiling, happy, laughing, and feeling good. And this has truly allowed me to feel a bit better, which has allowed us to talk about trying again for our family, of which once we get settled, we will try. No hurry, I'm not going to whip our ovulation strips, or stock up on tests. But we will try, and what ever will be will be.
God has really blessed us with these things in our paths. I gave him my troubles, and he returned to us a plan.
Oh Sarah, that is wonderful news! A home for your family!! You will love it! I work in disaster restoration and see a lot of disasters (fire, storm, etc) be sure you have really good insurance to cover the structure and your personal property! It's so cheap relative to what it would cost to lose everything. It's the biggest mistake I see people make, not getting any or enough insurance. Enjoy your new home! Be sure you have working smoke detectors in each level of the home AND one in each bedroom. Also, get a carbon monoxide detector too. Safety safety safety! enjoy and congratulations!
ReplyDeletecongrats on your new home! What a wonderful plan God has given you! :)
ReplyDeletelet me know if you need help moving in. I use to live out in that area, well, Harrison actually, which is like neighbors. :)
Thank you for the advice Mellissa!!
ReplyDeleteIts scary making this new commitment, but I believe we are ready.
