More Househunting Hysteria

So after the Model Home was foreclosed upon, it was back to the drawing board located at square one in the salt mines.  We jumped right back into househunting and it didn't take us long to find another specimen.  The Pot 'o Gold (so named by Eric because the current owner chose to paint every wall in the house a bold shade of goldenrod) is a 1900-square-foot, 10-year-old 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom house a few miles away from our current neighborhood.  The place is in incredible condition with lots of upgrades, and it's just over the county line where property taxes are a bit lower.  The sellers accepted our offer--$1000 more than we would have paid for the smaller, older model home--so now we're just waiting to see if the bank will take $165,000 less than the home's most recent purchase price.  Fingers crossed!
