Mother's Day Recap and House Hits the Market

Last weekend was a mixed bag with all kinds of stuff going on. With the news that our contingent offer was accepted, following Kenzie's 1st T-Ball game (more on that later), we spend most of Saturday getting the house a bit more tidy for the coming week. Thanks to both mom and dads we were able to move out a few things to "de-clutter" and get the yard, etc looking pretty snazzy. On Sunday we ventured down to the Pike Place market for some good ol' market time, followed by lunch at the Steelhead Diner. It was a place that Steph and I saw this last December on our weekend downtown and it just happened to come to my head on Friday. We got a great table and the food was really good.

We (Steph) did some final cleanup on the house and we were ready for the broker's open on Tuesday. There were about 35 agents that came through and feedback was all pretty good. Since then, another 6 or so agents, 3 with clients have come through as well. So, the activity is there...Next big date is the classic Sunday open house from 1-4pm. Ideally we get some activity (i.e. Offers) from that Open and things go from there. We realize this is all out of our hands at this points and if it is meant to be, it is meant to be.

Here is our MLS Listing. Spread the word !!!

FOR SALE!!

Since we dont have much going on and life was getting kinda dull around the Jensen house, we decided to shake things up a bit. We got word tonight that we came to mutual agreement to buy a new house about 1/2 a mile from where we are today in West Seattle. We have been looking on and off for a couple years, and when we saw this home, we had the feeling that this was the one. The sale is contingent on selling our current place....and quick. So, we are going to be spending the next few days getting the house ready to go on the market. Broker's open is scheduled for next Tuesday. If you know ANYONE interested in a charming, 3bedroom, 1.75bath home in West Seattle....send them our direction. Wish us luck, and pray that a buyer comes along so that we can make this happen. We love our house, and it has been a great for us, but with a couple growing girls, we just need some more space.



Once the MLS is up we will get that posted.
