We did it! After months of challenges, we are now homeowners. Scary, but exciting to tackle the new obstacles in our way. So much to do, it's all a work in progress. We are grateful for all the support of family and friends in this endeavor. It's our little patch of land and we will make it our home in time.
Funny how our perception of closing was so different than reality. You sign a bunch of different legal papers and then all of a sudden, someone says, "Congratulations". That's it. For some reason, we thought there would be some ceremonial presentation to make it official.
As for now, we will be in the Kew Gardens apt until the end of December. As posted before, we are nostalgic, but we can't live in Queens forever. There's not an affordable backyard to put a swing set or have bbq's- and we are all about that!
congrats! Owning a home will come in handy when It's tax time too.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I can't wait to see photos of your home.
ReplyDeleteYou know, that is what Brad does for a living-he owns a title company and does realestate legal work. Pretty boring.
Hey, welcome to the neighborhood. Your baby looks very cute and I hope she doesn't cry when we meet ...
