A Surprise----in deed it was when my Aunt Jill asked us one day why we don't buy versus renting. Well our response was "Hello!! We filed Chapter 13 bankruptcy 2.5 years ago and that means you don't get a house until your done paying all your debt back which takes 5 years." Her response was "let me run some numbers" and POOF here we are!
No it was not easy and it was without a doubt an emotional roller coaster in which many times we felt like unbuckling at the top of the ride but instead we held on like hell and landed rather great! By the way the "emotional" roller coaster is the only roller coaster I will ever ride.
Here are some specs. ****wait backing up Jill introduced us to Zoran our realtor and well lets just say he is amazing too****When we wanted to call it quits Zoran kept sending homes our way until-------we found OUR HOME!
It is a 3bed 1 bath 1 car garage but a 2.5 car length driveway and on a corner lot in Shawnee, the character it has was it's selling point. (pictures will come I promise)
Anyway we paid 10,000 less for this home than Russ paid 11 years ago with his first wife, and it's almost the same layout. It's cute and cozy and we are already quite settled in. So there ya have it. My surprise! We kept it on the down low because in cases like this you just never know and trust me sometimes we never knew.
My Aunt Jill worked a miracle that is for certain!! MUAH
