Well, looks like the wind is blowing south for me, found my dream home a place I plan to buy and see myself living there till I die, its in Southern Indiana, 34 acres, wooded, backs up to National Forest, 4 bedroom, 4 bath, 2,100 sq feet manufactured log cabin siding, three car garage with extra sleeping rooms, a detached 3 car garage insulated with full bath and wood heated, plenty of deer and turkey, will rent to own for 2 years then purchase with my VA home loan, going to look at it Saturday with the kids...I'm gonna call it "Hilltop Labrador Ranch"..will be inviting my future brother in law out for hunts and friends....its everything I'm looking for, no more wasted money on rent or laying in the dirt to work on my projects...I'm pretty excited...

Sounds like an exciting adventure. The best of luck to you, your fam., and may the wind be at your back.

cool. sounds great! Good luck

Go for it

well done. i especially like the log cabin look.perfect for the outdoors family..

Good luck in achieving your dream.

Congrats!

Thanks everyone, I'm really praying this works....its perfect....can not wait for Saturday...

Congrats, no place like home in the woods.

good luck , hope it works out

Well, how did it go today?

Okay, Saturday is over and gone(at least for me). When can I come over and do some REAL hunting?

I just saw this post.  I hope it went well for you.  It's just the thing everyone who loves the outdoors dreams about. Let us all know how it is going on purchasing it. Good luck .

Hope everything went well...Good luck!!

Saw the house, everything I expected had to do the legal paperwork on Monday, of coarse the idiot Agent put the wrong proposal in so had to redo the proposal, which the owner didn't say no to the wrong proposal just confused, so then the owner was in a meeting all day Tuesday so hoping to hear something today I feel comfortable the owner will accept, he has tiull the 28th to accept or decline, suppose to take possession 60 days from acceptance, so been praying like all, man their were some huge hoof prints and gresh right on the property and the view was goergous....

Isn't it amazing how inept most realtors are? And j
ust to make you feel "better" you're PAYING the a-hole for this!

Good luck

Gotta love it...during my 1st home closing the bank attorney had a fit because I initialed the pages JSB the way I have for umpteen years. Well, he said, the signatures on the paperwork don't have your middle initial, they have to match! I'm like, you're breaking my stones over a letter?? Do you want to sell the house or not??? Always an adventure!! Welcome to home buying....keeping my fingers crossed for ya!!!

yeah waiting on counter offer from owner, its no big deal I will agree to his terms its just the waiting for him to send the e-mail that sucks....I hate waiting but he does have to the 28th to decide...

Just like the military.....hurry up and wait!!!

I was gonna say that too....lol...got the counter, had one item to counter myself so back to waiting, expecting to sign the docs by Monday I'm praying....pushing for march 1st to take posession....so I wait...

Got the e-mail today, owner agreed to terms, Agent preparing the new rent to own documents should have them Monday to sign and then fax them back to finalize everything, probably move in April 1st, I believe they are giving the current tenant 60 days to get out....I want to move like yesterday, got plans and work to do....

Cool beans man! Congrats! I'm really happy for you!

Congrats!

Hey, Congrats!!! When's the hunting party...ummm...I mean house warming party??? Lol... Seriously, congratulations!

  Have a friend lives in Vernon, In.  He and his family/friends have taken some nice bucks that part of the state.  Good luck...

ROAD TRIP!

Couldn't sleep much last night sent in the fax Monday morning waiting on the final word and possession dat...no problems on a hunting party!!!! I can hardly wait......appreciate all the kind words....

Congrats! Good things happen to those who wait. Hope it all works out in your favor. The offer still stands if you ever want to hunt Kansas.

Boomer1 I may take you up on that next year as I've made a goal to either get the Grand Slam or Super Grand Slam, gonna take my time though, maybe one trip a year....something I've wanted to do for a long time....and if this property in Indiana shows real Trophys like I'm told your more than welcome to come out my way, got plenty of room for ya....

Sounds great to me. Just a simple way to pay veteran back for what you have done for this country. Thanks!!

Hear anything back grunt?

yeah sorry should have updated...sent my check, and the paper work, move in in March, once the earnest money is paid which should be before summer they will then take the house off the market, hasn't sold in four years can't see it selling in four months....so I'm feeling pretty confident if I work my budget right its all mine.....thanks for the prayers and support....can not wait to get to move in....

Finally packing for the move...leaving Friday.....already took a load to the house...final move like I said is Friday.....can not wait....

Great. When's the house warming.

I will let you all know....lol....

Well all moved into the new house....the wait was a killer....been cleaning up the mess left by the [previous tennant....busy, busy, busy....
