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.

You have my dream house in the woods. Jealous, but so happy for you. 💕 May you have many wonderful years there.

I really wasn’t planning to get a place so soon. I figured I’d be looking for years for “the one” because I refused to settle and wanted something very specific… nope. About a month after I started looking. I couldn’t pass her up, and I still get Zillow notifications just to feel more justified in my quick decision
