We're Under Contract!

I'm so excited to share that we are UNDER CONTRACT on our new house! This means, that in 30-45 days, this beauty below will be OURS! Can't wait to make some memories and watch my family grow here!

Since this is a HUD house, it's definitely going to need some work. Flooring will be first on the list, since, besides the tile seen in the foyer and kitchen, there are no floors in the house.

Painting will be next, because as you can tell from these pictures, the previous owners were not afraid to use dark bold colors throughout the entire house. Not exactly our style when it comes to colors; however it will eventually be everything we dreamed of!

Luckily, there aren't any structural issues that we'll have to face prior to moving in. The only major damage we've been able to find so far is the hole in the master bathroom wall. We're hoping our contractor (A.K.A. my dad) will be able to fix some of these issues rather inexpensively. HOPING.

Next project will be fencing in our back yard. As you can see below, the yard is huge. There is a main road on the other side of the wall in our back yard, therefore we will need to fence it in to keep Millie and Parker safe and sound.

Wish us luck on our journey towards home ownership! We're going to need it! Be sure to follow our adventures on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #TheAmesBuyAHouse.
