Our House Is For Sale – Under Contract & New Rental

I may have been keeping a secret from you guys. I hope you are ok with that. I’m just one of those people that doesn’t want to shout things from the roof tops until they are a for sure thing. Well, I’m breaking my rules today to share with you that… WE ARE UNDER CONTRACT! That feels really good to say. It’s all happening so quick & much quicker than we thought. I’m not complaining! So, a little back story on putting our house up for sale. I posted a few weeks ago {here} our house listing & the announcement that it was for sale. Rewind to a couple weeks before that even & we had a our very first showing before we put it on the market because someone heard we were selling our house by word of mouth. Shortly after the showing they wanted to go under contract with a closing date in the beginning of May. That’s a month away. Holy crap. I’m so ready to move, but at the same time I’m trying to soak up all of our time in this house while we can. We built this house together four years ago & have had so many good memories here that leaving will be really hard. We love this house. At the same time our lives the past two yeas have been a purgatory of sorts. We couldn’t do any major projects on this house because we were putting it up for sale. We have another home in Michigan, but we are not there to do all of the work ourselves. So renting a house here in NC will be fun & exciting with new projects and a new place to decorate. We are excited for the change! Alas, things can always change & happen so we are praying that this sale goes through & things work out with this buyer… so if you are feeling giving today, a little prayer would be much appreciated!!

I posted this photo a while back on my Instagram {here} as a hint about something exciting coming up. I know I’m such a tease! It was a hint towards a house that we will hopefully be renting here in North Carolina starting in May before we move home in 6 months. Below is the possible house we will be renting in the downtown area. It was built in the 1800’s, so it’s really old & the layout of the place is kind of crazy & will be so fun to style & decorate for me! We are already dreaming of projects there, & where everything will go in that house so in that sense we are ready to move, but of course still not ready to say goodbye to our lovely little house. Enjoy this tour of the possible rental home & please don’t get motion sick from my awesome video skills! haha

So, are you excited for us to move into a new place? Are you going to miss our current house? I know I am! If you have any questions for us.. leave them below! We will be here in NC until November, & then it’s off to our Michigan house {here} which is about to go under some HUGE changes. Can’t wait to share it all with you.. it’s going to be a crazy year! I’m so excited to have you all here for the journey with us. I can’t wait to share the good, the bad, & the ugly. It’s going to be fun. Thanks for stopping by the blog today & be sure to find me on Facebook & Instagram. Love you all!! xx
