Hi, @farm-mom ! That is exactly what I did! I was still the highest bid, I am sure as they kept offering me ways to make it work. Thankfully, the house has an offer on it as of this morning, it is pending.
I won't buy a house without an inspection. Seriously! We used to have a summer house up on the Canadian border (on the Great Lakes) and yes! I got used to it and it was fine. One day, my niece broke her arm when she fell out of a tree and I had to drive to the hospital to have it set. Two hours away with a crying child. After that, it didn't seem so bad.
Shopping ahead is what I always did there. It was fine, but, the kids were off school, and hey! It was summer. Now, I have things. Nothing desperately important but less time on my hands. It will work out though. I know it will and I am in no rush. I love my house here and something will present itself. Doesn't it always? :)
Thanks so much for dropping the link!
