I figured I would update this for anyone who cared (or not).
My folks have been slow to commit on selling there place and I am pretty sure they want to keep it at least for a while longer. That fixes that issue....But we still want to move to town and have been looking at houses for a while now. After shopping aggressively we found a place that will suit us great and its a foreclosure. Its bigger,flatter property has a second house for extra income potential Etc. (The whole family loves it) The asking price is half of what my parents wanted for there house but there house is in better shape overall.
So.....Today we put in a offer and earnest money down. I will keep you all posted and please send prayers my way for us getting this house.
As a side note, Out of the blue we have had two different people interested in our house after months of nothing, Home buying season must be underway.
