Sadly, things didn't work out with the townhouse. The seller's bank has jerked us around for almost 3 weeks now. They haven't decided whether they accepted our offer or not. I don't understand why it takes more than 3 weeks to make a decision. Now, all this week, the seller's realtor hasn't been returning our realtor's calls. So we said, screw you! We're not waiting anymore, we're telling YOU no!
So, we've decided that perhaps it's best to wait a year. We'll sign another year lease with the place we live now and take that time to pay off our credit cards. Even if it doesn't increase the amount the bank will give us, it will increase the amount of money we have left over after paying our mortgage when we get one.
At first, I was relieved. Now, I feel sad. No more looking at people's houses. We saw a few places that were definitely very bachelor. I'm talking weight-lifting equipment, protein shakes, porn not hidden very well and even a tanning bed. Yes, a tanning bed. I wish I'd brought a camera.
