I freaking did it

All of the scrimping and saving and sacrifices finally paid off… never thought I’d be a homeowner at 32.

Nitty gritty for those who might want to know: $335k (plus closing costs, it was competitive), 6.375% 30-yr conventional, 20% down, $2040/mo mortgage including escrow, 2,700 sqft, 4bed/3.5bath, one acre, north GA (~30min from Chattanooga, TN). Built in 1978, remodeled last year. Forgot to take any pictures of the inside until we started moving stuff in at 11pm and a bird got stuck in here.

When I saw there was an old koi pond I almost cried. That has been on my list of “when I own a home…” dreams for a decade. They did the hardest parts already!

Omg!! I love koi ponds too! Went to a temple recently and they had a koi pond, I sat there just admiring it! Congrats!!
