We put our house up for sale around July 2nd I believe for 130,000 and July 3rd we had three people come to look at our house. That night we got an offer for 120,000 which was too low so we counter offered and they counter offered back, the highest they could go was $125,000. But someone was coming to view it Monday so we decided to see if that person would make an offer, they knew we had an offer already. Tuesday we got an offer from them of 135,000 and a letter explaining how much they wanted our house :) it was sweet, but a better offer so we accepted!
Then became the process of them getting an inspection on the house and an appraisal. We don't know what it was appraised for but we know it was at least 135,000 so yay
So all of that took sometime but we close today (august 17th) and they get the house Tuesday. We then had a very quick trip to Oregon where spencer had a 2nd job interview for the state, two days later we find out he got the job! He will be a market analyst for the state of Oregon. A couple days ago we were running out of apartments that were available when we needed to move. He starts September 1st at his new job. So we had to look for a little higher price range and got accepted to that apartment within two hours. A few days later we accepted. Last week we moved into my parents basement so we could clean up the house.
It all happened pretty fast but were times where we had to be patient while we waited for final answers.
We will pack up the moving truck next Monday and Tuesday the 25th we move to Oregon
I'm filled with LOTS of emotions!! Excitement at living in a new place and being closer as a small little family. And a new adventure
Worry of being a little more on my own and having to start over again (in a way)
No friends or family so have to meet new people an make new friends
Trying not to forget everything we have to do in the process of moving lol
We will live in an apartment for a year to get used to the area and spencer focus more on his new job instead of fixing a house. An we will know what kind of area we want to live in and is fairly safe area.
Wish us luck! And anyone is welcome to come visit... Family wise it's 12 1/2 hours from tooele Utah, 12 hours from Palmdale California and 12 hours from rexburg, Idaho
I have our new address so if anyone wants it let me know :)
Since everything has gone so fast and been fairly smooth it confirms that moving is what was the plan for us. That helps calm some nerves
