Raleigh is in the news again. According to CNNMoney.com Raleigh has been named #3 in large metro areas to launch a small business. We always knew it was a great place to live and work. I hope a lot of small business owners and their families begin to call us home. Link to the article: http://money.cnn.com/smallbusiness/best_places_launch/2009/snapshot/271.html
I am working with the Thayers and we have been looking at house for a month. They have found 2 houses that they really liked- the first went under contract before they could make an offer and the second had three offers on it, one of which was ours. I really felt it was a strong offer and that they had a really good chance at going under contract. Got an email today and we did not get it! The Thayers are very disappointed. We continue our home search but next time our offer may be stronger and made quicker.

Its official we are under contract with our next flip property.
We are thrilled with our new property. As we go through all the steps I will update and supply pictures of the property. Last Sunday Tom and I made our final visit to the property before writing an offer to measure it, doing a inspection in the attic and in the crawl space. We also visited Home Depot to price the items that we will need to replace or repair. We wrote a competitive offer and submitted it to the listing agent. On Wednesday we got the good news- They accepted our offer!!
This coming week we will be requesting that the electricity be turned on we will be having our Well and Septic inspections. We will be finding out whether we will be using the Lenders Attorney or our own choice for an Attorney. And making our time line for repairs.
My next update will be on the results of the inspections.
