Update

Well the house that we were going to move into we aren't. To get the house approved for FHA financing there were things the sellers had to fix(the things we wanted to do). We got estimates for the bank (seller) and they wanted up the purchase price $8,000 to do the repairs themselves. Well to up it that much would put the purchase price over what the house was worth through the appraisal. We weren't willing to get a loan for more than the house was worth so we told them no. Well that was the end of that. So we were allowed to extend our lease on our apartment until the 30th of June luckily! We talked to the guy going our loan and he said that if we could find a house in the next few weeks then we would have no problem closing on it before we have to be in there. So we're back to the drawing board on houses. Well today is the day we're going to look at more and if they aren't what we're looking for then we're going to find a new apartment. There is just nothing on the market that is worth what they're asking for it. Plus Ryan and I are just tired at looking at houses and then getting let down. Wish us good luck if not we're going to be raising 3 kids in a 2-3 bd. aparment........SHOOT ME NOW!!!

That's a bummer, sorry things didn't work out. I know how you feel, house hunting isn't as much fun as it sounds!! Jeff and I have been doing it ourself for a little while.

Yeah buying a house totally sucks. We are trying to sell our condo so we can buy something closer to AF or Lehi so Karl doesn't have to drive an hour to work every day, and it SUCKS. First you find a house then it doesn't turn out then you have to start all over again. We have to sell ours before we do anything, which sucks too. The whole process is just too hard, plus being pregnant can't be fun in all of this...
