Life As Pre-Qualified!

Soooo...I wanted to post a little update about what is going on with us right now! It is pretty exciting! :)

Ray and I have been looking for a new place to live, we were looking at apartments, and we found one not too far from here that we applied for and got approved for! So that is awesome that we got approved! Well, the day after we applied for the apartment I got a direct mailer flyer in the mail for some brand new condos in Issaquah. So I told Ray about them and I called to ask about them. So they are doing an amazing special where you pay $500 earnest money and the mortgage company will pay the 3% down and all the closing costs. So Ray and I decided to go and take a look at these. We went out last Wednesday and got there right before they were closing for the night. So we took at a look at the two bedroom one bath model. AND WE LOVE IT!!!

We went home that night and filled out the form to get pre-qualified. We heard back on Thursday and we are pre-approved! We are going to the office tomorrow morning to talk with the sales manager and sign the sales contract and put our $500 down! We chose the biggest unit in the building! We are hopefully going to be able to see that unit tomorrow and we can take some photos then! All the appliances are black on black and extremely nice Maytag! There is front loader washer and dryer! We had a chose between a unit with a washer, dryer and fridge and no balcony or a unit with a balcony and no washer, dryer and fridge. We chose the one with no balcony. So no BBQ...but at least we have friends near by that we can BBQ with if we are in the mood!

So I just wanted to let everyone know what was going on with us and share in our excitement! :) Yippieee!!! Hopefully my next post will include some photos!
