We're buying a house?!

It's official: the Petersons have lost their minds.  After returning home from Peru, Sarah spotted this home online and asked that we take a look at it.  We've been looking for a home for a few weeks, since mortgage rates are low, and it would be a great investment to rent out while we live overseas with the Foreign Service.  We put in an offer on this "quaint" two-bedroom townhouse in North Arlington, and we're shocked to discover our offer was accepted!

There is still a lot of work to be done, but we're hoping to close by the end of October.  Woohoo!  We're part of the landed gentry!

Wow. The house has nice exteriors! :) Were you able to buy this house? If I may suggest, it would be good to ask for a lawyer’s help in having the title search. It would help you determine the legality of owning and the right taxes of the property.

Since the rates are very low, it’s timely to purchase this house. That’s definitely a good investment. I think the value of this house will continue to increase in the future. Renovating it could boost its value too. -Oscar Lang
