caution = 'vision' required

the green family is moving! we're in contract to buy the above property. we've been offering on this house for about 7 months now. originally it was a short sale and our offer was extremely low compared to the mortgage due. no deal. later, it was on the market again for less than our original offer (weird market these days - short sales are hard to get!) and was snatched up right away. rats. we actually put an offer in on another house down the street because we thought this one for gone for sure. but, again, it popped back on the market - for a steal, too - so we offered and it was accepted and we're in contract! i know, it doesn't seem like a family would try so hard for it, but it has soooo much potential. stay tuned, suggestions will be welcomed.
