House Hunting

Barry and I started house hunting this weekend and ended up putting an offer on this one townhouse that we found.

While the carpet looks a nice, neutral beige-y color, it is not. It is 70s style orange shag carpet. Blech! It'll be a lot of work (there are popcorn ceilings, double blech), but I like the place.
We're pretty excited. There was already an offer on the place, so we gave them their asking price and all we asked for that wasn't already included was the fridge. It turns out it was a default, so the price is low. A place just went up a few doors down for $181,000. So I think we're getting a pretty good price. Now, we need to come up with closing costs which is kind of freaking me out.
The seller accepted our offer and now, his bank has to review the offer. Hopefully they accept it!
