Just got a call from the realtor. The house is mine if I can aquire the funding. The sellers agreed to my terms and the contract goes through to the lawyer on the tenth. Now, it's all about the mortgage. Wish me luck.
GO!! GO NOW!! Get those papers and magic pencils moving girl! I am just tickled for you and very very anxious to see some photos of this home that is asking you to honor her with your keeping! :)
It ain't over till its over! When we got our USDA loan this past fall it was touch and go but our mortgage broker worked on it till it happened. He was the second broker we worked with. The first broker didn't know that much about RD loans and just wrote us off as non-qualifying. Hang in there, sweetie. Praying for you.
I'm trying to manifesting this for you - sounds amazing! My partner & I have just begun the process of looking for land to farm & homestead on. I'm definitely interested to hear how the USDA loans work - that sounds like a great option for us as well (especially with very little savings since our rent is so high right now). Best of luck - I can picture you there - you'll get it! Hope & luck is flying from the west coast to you!
I'm sending you all the luck I have! You deserve your farm!! And you need to get this farm if only for all of us out there who have to live vicariously through you:)
You will get the house - you will get the house.... I will keep repeating that until the 10th. Can't they move it up!! That is a long time to wait on pins and needles - very uncomfortable - ha!
Did you notice that "luckluckluck" almost looks like "cluck-cluck-cluck"? I think that means all our combined chickens are roosting - oops, I mean rooting - for you, too!
You must be a complete stress-ball! Go prop your feet up, grab a glass of wine, snuggly blanket and a book, put on some slow fiddle tunes and try to relax! It will work out one way or another!
The anticipation is hard for us, can't imagine what it's like for you. Wishing you luck. Hubby and I are trying to find a way to buy the 180 acres behind our 10 acre block at the moment, so know a little of what you feel like....GOOD LUCK!!
Sending good mortgage vibes your way! I remember how stressful this part was to go through when we did it a year ago. Unfortunately, it really can take all of the closing period to work it out...in our case, right up until the very last day. Stay strong!
The Very Best of Luck, Jenna but....READ everything, don't let them rush you when it's time to sign. At some places you can ask for a copy of the forms, just without your figures on them, so you can take your time and see if you understand it all. Questions tend to get brushed off "Oh that's just blah, blah, blah" at closing time and in your excitement you could miss something that will be important to you down the line. That's also where not-so-nice people get you. I'm so excited for you, though, I feel that this one will work!!!!
It's 1:30 AM tomorrow in Vermont. I have no idea what I was expecting, but I DID NOT want o miss a late update before I went to bed. Do lawyers and realtor work until 1:30 AM in Vermont?
Good luck x if its meant to be,it will unfold as it should.Dont be tempted to over stretch your self on the financing though,you want to be able to have enough energy to use the place as its meant rather than falling exhausted from a long day earning the money pay for it if that makes sense.Fingers crossed here your broker can get you a good mortgage deal & get this one in the bag for you x x x
I have my fingers and toes crossed for you and sent a little request to the man upstairs that everything works out for you. I hope you find the security that you need to reach your dreams and make them a reality!
I would like to echo Greentwimmummy's sentiments. While I do truly wish you the best, please don't overextend yourself on the mortgage. I'd hate to see you in a year struggling to stay afloat.
Enjoy the story of a young writer living in Washington County with her fancy dogs, sheep, lots of chickens, fiber & meat rabbits, geese, ducks, turkeys, a hive and a garden. Expect to hear a lot about mountain music, the civil war, local food, and my friends along the way. It's a big time folks.

Waiting with baited breath. You will be stirring in my thoughts until you post again.
Did you notice that "luckluckluck" almost looks like "cluck-cluck-cluck"? I think that means all our combined chickens are roosting - oops, I mean rooting - for you, too!
Good luck! Even if this one doesn't work out at least your mortgage will be settled and you'll know which price class to continue looking!
May the force be with you.

When I read the post from canttalkdyeing...at first I thought it said
cluck, cluck, cluck... etc...
Which, I think, would be a chicken's way of sending you luck, so it would definitely be appropriate!
I hope you get your sheep farm!
Ohh so excited for you. Crossing my fingers and my toes.
Oh how exciting! Sending so many happy, good luck, and good mortgage thoughts your way.
Congrats Jenna! I'm so happy for you!
Sending you happy loan vibes!!!! Can't wait to hear more good news!
Blessings,
Debi
Fingers crossed? check. Toes crossed? check. 6 pairs of cat paws crossed by force and held by rope? Check.
Sending good mortgage vibes your way! I remember how stressful this part was to go through when we did it a year ago. Unfortunately, it really can take all of the closing period to work it out...in our case, right up until the very last day. Stay strong!

Prayers that the lovely farm will be yours Jenna. And some ice cream while you wait.
You want it, it will happen! More positive vibes coming from this direction!
Woohoo! Looks like this is going to go through.
We're all hoping for you and with you.
Is it Farm Credit in Greenwich? Try them! I hear they are pro small farm.

Oh, now how far away from the Battenkill are you?

Lord,
Thank You for what You have done so far. We ask Your help now with the financing and that it be quick and fair. Thank You Lord.
In Jesus' name we pray,
Amen
I`ve been following this blog for half a year, and it gets quite exiting. Hope you succeed.
I aggree with Patsy: Amen
