No mud!

We went out and walked on the property on Monday.  It was nice.  Two huge evergreen trees and a slight slope.  The view is just stunning.  I'll have to snap a picture so I can share.

A school bus drove by and I didn't need to raise my voice to talk, so I don't think the road noise will be a problem.  Our realtor expressed concerns about the slope and how it drains and the lack of information on wells in the area.

I thought it was a positive thing that we weren't mucking around in mud, we'd had torrential rain for a couple of days and the ground wasn't soupy.  So, good drainage.

Sorry no pictures yet, forgot to take my camera with me.

What's the next step?  Our Realtor asked the seller's agent for the septic approval paperwork and any information on wells in the area.  He finally responded to her and sent the approval and a water test that was done on a neighboring property's well.  No contaminants to speak of. 

Now we need to make an offer on the property, and see where that leads.  We have a tight budget, but I'm optimistic that we'll be able find a number that makes the both the seller and us happy.

Stay tuned!!!
