New house (?)

Well, we are a long crazy way from being done but we have had our bid accepted and are now in a ticking time bomb of an escrow on our new place in Scott’s Valley.

I had run across this place last year, really liked it, got Charise all jazzed up about it, we put a in a low ball offer… the other agent jerked us around then they took a different contingent offer. We where pretty bummed. But I kept my little real-estate widget running and noticed immediately when it was listed again. It’s been a pain in the ass of negotiation, but I think there is a very serious long term upside potential to the new place so hopefully it will be worth it. It’s big(ish) almost 2300sqf on a court with a view. The lot is interesting not all of it is very usable (but not backed up to a mountain either) but there are a like of pretty tree’s and it’s a nice quit pocket where you can’t really hear 17.

Now we just have to sell our place in this messed up market… but we have a pretty cute place and it’s a dam fine location so hopefully we will do well enough.

I’m trying hard not to think about some of the little down sides like increased commute time :p.

Course it could all still explode if any of the inspection reports are totally out of whack.

Next up: some snaps from Kaily’s first Ski trip that involved ski’s and a sled :)
