We are Buying a HOUSE!

This whole house hunting extravaganza has been quite the drama. We originally submitted bid for a bank owned home on the market for one day. After resubmitting and competing with our highest bid secured this home. The bad news was upon a second visit and investigation we realized there was some serious roof damage that had previously occurred and could probably happen again. Lucky for us Brendan's parents were in town and also pointed out some other issues with the home that we really had not seen before. After talking it over we decided the best decision was to walk away and let it be a money pit for someone else. So we continued looking at houses. At this point we had seen over 65 houses and were still just not in love with any of them. This past Saturday our luck changed, we found our house. We found a gorgeous 2005 newer home in Draper in the Suncrest neighborhood. This area you have to see to believe it is incredible. Literally overlooking the whole city and tucked up in the mountains. The views are spectacular but the house is stunning. The only down side to the house is I would still have my hour commute to Ogden. I don't mind this too much since I listen to a lot of audio books and I absolutely love my job. For this house, I would do it. We put our bid in on Monday, Tuesday we received a counter offer to which we counter offered. Today they have accepted the third addendum and we will be moving by the end of June! I am so excited and thrilled about this house and location, it is a good size house with five bedrooms so start booking your Utah vacations! Love Alyssa and Brendan
