Good News

The sellers accepted all our terms and should already be in the process of fixing the issues with the house we noted on the contract, specifically getting the electrical box up to code, restoring power to the two tiny bed rooms, and adding a vent for the dryer; they also have to ensure that the A/C unit will be installed by the time we close, but it can't be installed too early or all the copper may be stolen out of it before we move in. They have ten days to complete all the repairs and then we will re-inspect, but we'll just have my dad (the building and former ship's engineer) take a look at everything and test the electrical.

I've already begun obsessing about all the planting I want to do! There are a few things we'll need to get our wonderful, dynamo handyman to fix before I can start on that, but he works extremely fast and very reliably.
