I told you, now we wait. It’s hard, isn’t it? You get hooked into that go go go, something happening at every turn hurry up and get to it mode. You adrenaline junkie, you. If you’re looking to keep up the frantic pace, here are just a few of the things that still need to … Continue reading
Okay, so we didn’t really offer the sellers a coffee card in exchange for the sewer repair. We did, however, come to an agreement on the items identified in the inspection report. And… it’s a go.
