You would have paid more than that out if your house had been on the market for a long time...extra mortgage payment and utilites would have been more than the mistake.
Just trying to put a postive spin on it!!  |
Yes, and I'll take it as a lesson learned!
We've had our inspections done already and they came back with 6 windows that have broken seals. We knew it would come up so we've kinda been putting money back for it. Since my DH works in construction he got a good deal to have 6 windows replaced for $700. So, we'll have to pay that up front. Otherwise, they've scheduled their closing and everything already! We've been moving stuff over to the other house already and could possibly be completely out by next week.
Next week also brings a trip home to Indiana. I've saved about $100 for gas, there and back. I should have been saving more for the trip, but hopefully we won't spend that much. We'll stay with my parents and eat out only once that I can see. I'm going to pack a cooler for the trip there so we're not making rash purchases at gas stations while we're filling up.
