We Bought A House!!

Spencer flew solo to Bethesda, MD for a house hunting trip. Dying to invest in something, he insisted that we buy instead of rent when he's in residency, then keep it as a rental property. With only a week to find us a place to live, we were both stressed- especially since he didn't love anything he saw. Then this new listing came up one morning, and he went to see it that same day.

To the left of the house in the side yard, he said this sold him from the start:

A kid-sized cemented in basketball hoop.

He said he could just envision Shawn "shooping"hoops there and loving it. One picture that I particularly loved was this:

A fenced in back yard (not the dogs!).

A few days later we put in an offer, and the sellers accepted it. They actually accidentally met when he went to see the house, and their realtor told our realtor that they liked him :) He was able to squeeze in a home inspection the day before he flew home, and we got word three days later that the sellers accepted all of the things we asked them to fix. It's exciting and terrifying all at the same time!
