The whole day felt like an episode of House Hunters International. It was a whirlwind day. We saw five apartments total and the one we chose was far and above the best.
We were waiting with the realtor for someone to bring the keys to the first and only place she had to show us. It was taking forever so finally she suggested that we get in her car and drive around to see if anything else had come on the market. Sure enough we found one place with a for rent sign in the window. She called the number on the sign and the guy hurried over to meet us. He happened to mention that there was also an apartment in the building just down the street that was going to be for rent. The first place he showed us was ok. The area was lovely, but the apartment was sort of small and run down. So then he took us to the place down the street. The building was beautiful and the apartment was fantastic.
As we finished looking, the guy with the keys to the original place the realtor wanted to show us arrived at that apartment. So we hurried over to see it. It was terrible! Throughout the afternoon we saw two others, one terrible and one ok, but knew that the second one was the place for us.
So we called the realtor and the landlord and began the paperwork. Honestly, I have gone back and forth about the place. It is beautiful and in an amazing location. I just can't imagine how we are going to fit into it! I am thankful to the Lord for His provision of this nice place and a very kind landlord... who has already invited us over for tea!
The realtor went on and on about how fast and limited the market is in that particular town. In fact the place we rented had just been vacated the day before. It wasn't even on the market yet!
