Offer on House Accepted

After viewing more homes on Wednesday, we had a short list of homes we were interested in. We spent Wednesday evening comparing the homes on our list and finally settled on the one we saw in Sebastian on a double lot and the updated kitchen.

We met with our realtor yesterday morning and put in an offer on the Sebastian house and the owners accepted our offer today.

Our realtor gave us the names of some home inspectors and we one of them today and have a home inspection set up for Monday. Since the house also has a septic tank, we called a septic company and they will be at the house Monday to pump out the tank and inspect it. Jeanne (our realtor) also gave us a list of local insurance companies and even called a few to get insurance quotes for the house.

We drove down to Vero Beach this afternoon to have dinner at Christine and Matt's.

From Vero Beach

Carol made lasagna for all of us. Nancy (another high school classmate of Mike's) and her husband Bill joined us for dinner. Nancy and Bill moved to Vero Beach last summer, so that makes 4 of Mike's high school classmates that live here.

Everyone was excited to hear that we had made an offer on a house and that it had been accepted. They even gave us the names of some furniture consignment shops in the area and we're going to check them out next week.
