Good Bye Leesburg...

BIG NEWS The Christensen Clan will be leaving Leesburg! We have been talking about putting our townhouse on the market for quite some time now and the deciding factor for selling now rather than wait one more year was, our neighbor got a motorcycle. No joke, he turns that thing on every morning at 6am and lets it just idle for 30-40 minutes. It is super effective at waking up my children. And on weekends, well he doesn't get it started in the morning, he conveniently waits until the exact moment Jordan falls asleep for her afternoon nap to take his kids on individual motorcycle rides around the neighborhood, all 4 of them, grrrrrr.  Anyway... we spoke to our realtor about possibly listing our TH, he said if we could have it ready for photos in 5 days then his photographer would be available then. So we scrambled to de clutter and straighten the best we could. Pictures were taken on a Thursday and BOOM our TH was listed at 2am Friday morning.  No joke 12 hours later we had a showing scheduled for Friday night and woke up to a full price offer on Saturday! Unbelievable. we did not accept the offer until later that weekend only because I think we were in shock at how fast everything was happening. We officially close on the TH May 1st.

It just so happens that a few weeks prior to listing our TH we saw a beautiful 3000 sqft single family home in Purcellville,  on .3 acre, with a garage that would fit Peter's Truck(harder to find than you think). Did I mention it has a wrap around porch! so cute! Long Story short we made an offer and stood our ground when they countered and we got it for what we wanted! Once again Unbelievable. Things are moving crazy fast and we close on our new House May 5th.  We are super excited and can't wait for this new journey for our family to begin :)

Good Bye Leesburg... Hello Purcellville.
