After much back and forth and indecision, we have finally decided to pull up stakes and move on up! We have a realtor and I got us pre-approved for a loan today. The mortgage broker said Clintonville is actually the #1 market in all of Columbus and most of the houses he sees have at least 5 offers on the first day (one had 16!) Since he didn't want us to be homeless - since he expects our house to sell immediately - he approved us to buy without selling based on our location. Then, once we are in contract on a new place, we'll stick this place on the market and sell it fast. Our realtor is great and she has already shown us a couple places - and signed us up for daily email alerts. Because, already, multiples houses we liked have been in contract before we can even get in! We are looking in a couple areas, including The Ville. But for what we could get here, we could get a lot more house elsewhere. So...we'll see what we find!
Lots of changes coming for Wm!! He had Field Day today. Then, next week, he only has school Tues/Wed/Thurs. On Wednesday, he has his official elementary graduation. Then, Thursday is a half day after Lunch on the Lawn. So, Wm only has 4 days of school left!! And, really, only 2 "real" school days. He has lots of exciting things happening this summer. Some cool campus, a visit to grandma and grandpa, and a move!! Wm is a tough customer. The first house we saw he declared "disgusting" and, despite just being totally renovated, Wm said, "this needs to be completely redone." Then, the second one, he loved, but he did not like the neighborhood and said it was "off the list." It was much easier to move before he could talk!
