To Buy or Not Buy

So Josh and I are hoping to take the next big step...That's right we are house hunting!

Below I have posted a picture of our potential beauty. It is an old Victorian home built in 1890. That's right 1890 (yikes!!) Keep in mind this one is a fixer upper! Our goal is to find the ugly duckling in the desirable neighborhood and fix it up, and hopefully when we sell in a few years we will be able to make a profit. If any of you have watched "Property Ladders" or "Flip this House" then you know what I am talking about.:) We just want to find a property that will be a good investment. Buying a home alone is a big step, but all the renovations we need to do is a little nerve racking (Luckily Josh is handy). Anyways, we are just trying to get some final things in order before we make an offer! AHHH!!! Hopefully no one snags this house from underneath us before we can seal the deal. Wish us luck!!

This house looks perfect! I'm so excited for you. What I wouldn't give to have a house and to stop being an apartment/townhome dweller. Best of luck!
