Wendy was aware that our budget shouldn't exceed a certain amount but said she HAD to show this house on the lake. Sam and I thought "what lake?!". The only lake we knew of was Lake Travis and we both knew we couldn't afford that, didn't want to afford that, and didn't want to be that far. Then she brings us to Lake Pflugerville. We get down with the pups and walk around and think "wow, a house here would be perfect for the pups and so convenient for us!" Below is a photo of our first time on the lake.
Bad lens sorry. :)
Every single wall in this house was painted!! And I haven't posted the photos of the baby pink room with a blue sky.
But then....
We walk to the back yard and this would be the view from the back porch if we bought this house! Relaxing! Oh and it was sooo fresh even if it was 80 degrees outside. This view is totally worth the work and money it would be to re paint the entire house right?!
We walk out and I'm not too excited because I think surely a house that backs up to this lake (that also had a small beach and park and pavilion) is probably already under contract just like the other few houses we saw that we liked. Wendy calls the realtor and be says "no contract but waiting for one to come in tonight". Sam and I continue on our way with the rest of the house hinting and take some time to think about it. We are hesitant because it is over our budget. We drive back to SA and call Wendy and say "make the offer!" It turns out that other offer that was coming in still hasn't and ours was the only offer. The sellers accept our offer as is the next day; sans negotiating! We're in!!
