Now, off to a Realtor!

Awesome! That's good news! Good luck and have fun house hunting!

Neither.

Agent was just an idiot.

Wow....I didn't even remember making this thread.

I guess I could update everyone one what's going on. We bought a house in Thornton off of 128th and Quebec. We went with a new construction because we felt like that was the best bang for our buck after looking at many many houses that we felt were overpriced for what they offered.

Thanks to those that offered and provided help!

PS - Anyone who wants to do landscape work for beer and BBQ this coming spring is welcome to help me finish my backyard!

What's really funny is that we got a quote from Wells Fargo, but went with the builders lender instead since the incentives were there on top of a better rate, and after 1 month of having the loan it was sold to Wells Fargo.

Congrats! I was going to post something yesterday but then I looked at the date and wondered if you'd done anything.
