House Update

I don't really have any answer on the house front, we made the offer, got a counter offer, countered the counter offer received another counter offer. We let this one expire as our original offer was low, we agreed to pay for all the inspections and fix the paint for the loan. However, we really like the house - but if this is the price we stop at, we're not going to pay all those extra fees.

We had a little snag with our insurance. Because we got the roof fixed from the storm damage before we sold the house in Sharpsville, the insurance company said that our home owner's insurance would go up to $1,100 a year - from the $400 we were paying before. This would make our monthly payment just out of my comfort zone. So. Chris called another insurance company that will be $600 a year, but it will also save us $86 a month from what we are paying now. How great is that? While we've been with our insurance guy for the last 6 years, we hate to leave him, but if we can get the same coverage for less and he's (company) not willing to help us out, we gotta go where we are saving the money.

Once we get this figured out, we'll submit another offer.
