Repost from LIF- We bid on a house!!! Update 1/13/08!!

I can't believe it!! I couldn't sleep all last night because my brain kept thinking about it. It's small... only 2 bedrooms but it has a full basement.

Keep your fingers crossed... hopefully I'll know something within the next day.

Ok, so she counter offered and it's close to our figure! I am SO SCARED, excited, and nervous. I don't know what to do. On the one hand, it has so much charm. I could see living in it. It doesn't need much work to move in and what it does need is totally doable. However, it's small- 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. We would have the basement, which spans the whole length of the house. My dad and DH could finish it. So it does double our living space from 990 sq. ft upstairs to 1980 sq. ft. I guess I always envisioned something bigger but it does have charm. I'm rambling because I am scared. I've never been so scared in my life- not even when marrying DH! Anyone else feel this way- have second thoughts?

Here is a picture of the dining room (she has it cluttered beyond belief)



View into the kitchen- needs work but isn't terrible. DH and my father could seal up the other entrance and we could put counters all the way around

Our offer was ACCEPTED!!!!! So now we are scheduling a home inspection. If all goes well, we'll be HOMEOWNERS!
