Good news!

We finally received a contract on our Denver house! Woohoo! We are so excited since this had to happen in order for us to be able to purchase the new house being built across the street from us here in BV. This is the a current photo of where the new house is in construction. Very cool! So the next step is putting our fixer upper house on the market which hopefully will happen in the next week. I know this is all very confusing. Too many properties! How did we get here? Well I know the answer to that question and it all seemed to make sense to us at the time. Too bad we didn't have the foresight about this housing crisis or we could have sold our Denver house for a lot more money. Oh well. I'll just be glad to finally consolidate our money into one property that we love instead of 3 that we don't. So, if you just happen to know anyone interested in 3 acre lot on Trout Creek Pass with a tepee and a shed on it or a cute in town 1 bedroom 1 bath old house with lots of character send them our way. The new house will be finished in September so we're hoping that the house we're in now will sell fast. We're pretty anxious to move across the street since this will be the first house that we have ever owned that has a garage, a guest bedroom, a second bathroom and plenty of storage. A couple of days ago we were on the verge of giving up hope that this was all going to work out because we were running out of time. It also seems that a couple of people around town were waiting for us to fail so they be the next buyer in line on this house. This of course made us want it even more. I think we've become a bit possessive since we've already mentally purchased the property. Although we do have a lot of friends here who have rooted for us all along and seemed to have more faith than we did that it would work out. Fingers crossed!
