Appraisal was right where it was expected to be. 4 estimates for the roof. We requested the seller to give us a credit at closing for the roof repairs, he agreed to the credit. We removed the inspection contingency and are locked to close August 25th.
I'm freakn ready!

Yeah dude!!!!! Awesome news!!!
In line with you're housing situation, we finally recieved a purchase and sale agreement from our landlords. Need to go over the closing cost details with them, but I think we might be able to figure it out pretty easy. Hopefully close in a month and a half if all goes well!

Thanks, it is pretty nice. I never thought we would have made a deal with the seller in our price range on a house like this. The entire situation was just on our side for making this work. I'm beside myself with joy for not only the deal, but for my family and our future here.
We are going a bit crazy in the camper. It feels like when you count down the days for a vacation you have planned. Seems to take FOREVER, then the day is here, and the entire vacation is over before you know it. The move in day will be here like the snap of our fingers and we will be looking back at this wondering how we ever made it.
Being cooped up and with so much less than we were used to really makes you appreciate every little bit of sanity and space you have.
I'm looking forward to floating on the river with my raft while I drink down a few cold ones staring into the trees.

How's it going? Did you close on the 25th??? Everything still good???

Well Trip, thanks for checking in on us.
IT'S ALL OVER! WE ARE IN THE HOUSE!
We closed on the 25th at 9am, met up with our semi driver to bring the stored goodies to the house and were delivered by 10:30 am. We couldn't wait to get in!
First thing was popping a bottle of wine that we were saving for 10 months to celebrate whatever house we ended up with. With glasses in hand, we did a walk through before the chaos of unpacking started. I had a barn mailbox (last name BARNES) built for the new place. Our old house, even though it was in the city, the city was too small to have a courier service deliver mail to the houses and we had to go to the post office and have a PO Box. Super annoying. Couldn't wait to have a sweet mailbox, the neighbors love it.
Saturday at 9am our unloading crew of friends and family showed up and the semi was unloaded in about 3 hours and 75% of the boxes at least ended up in the right room. The group ate lunch and relaxed a few hours as we sat around stacked up boxes everywhere. It was awesome. Strange part is our last house was about 1/2 the size as this one and yet we still seem to have PLENTY of SH!T to fill every room, how does that happen??? hahaahaha
The first night we were greeted with deer! 3 in the front lawn around 8pm, 5 in the back yard around 10pm, and another 3 the next morning in the back yard. There is deer turds all over this property. They must be cutting through the river along our property to eat the plants in this neighborhood and head back over.
Now at a solid week in the new place we are pinching ourselves and have thoughts of "do we really live here?" going through our heads.
What a treat. Thanks for everyone here reading along and wishing us luck.
