Thank you! Looks like we made the right decision because since posting this we actually went with the Harmon absolute 43, which I think is the smaller version of yours. Our new place is smaller than yours so hopefully it works out well!

Yeah that's true. I'm sure it likely won't be quite up to par for those frigid days but as long as it keeps the oil furnace off for the majority of the winter, I'm happy, lol.

Very helpful and good advice! Will definitely do plenty of research on whatever we end up with. Harman is definitely at the top of my list right near PelPro.

I've only heard good things about Harman. Will definitely keep an eye out for those.

We saw those when looking online and thought they looked good. Great to get someone's first-hand account though. Thanks!

Overlook Hotel is based on the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO. Definitely not Maine by a long shot.

Interesting, it kinda makes me think the market is slowing down a bit, so sellers sitting on their listing longer than they were hoping for are willing to make consessions to help the sale go through. Which is good news since we're buying, but on the other hand we might not get as much for our current place. Thanks for the comment!

We have not. Don't know much about them tbh. Will have to do some research.

That's our exact fear. We were quoted at around 6.5% during pre-approval (which isn't much better). Meanwhile, we're paying 3.7% right now, so it has to be something we absolutely love for it to be worth it in our minds.

Basically it's shorthand for "I'll buy your house, but only if I manage to sell mine at the same time". Very common for those of us who can't manage to swing two mortgages at once. It's risky though, because someone can swoop in, pay cash and steal it out from under you. Legally.

We are planning on going contingent for a place further north, somewhere between Farmington and Kingfield. Definitely don't want to rent.

That helps a lot! We are actually considering buying in the Farmington / New Portland area. Good to keep that in mind, thank you for the warning!

Totally agree. We decided to spend more now so we save in the long run. This new place does have some vents for airflow here and there but time will tell how well they work, lol. Stay warm!
