Thank you for taking the time to review our offer on your house.
Please God, accept our offer.
We are Jen Lockard and Bill Dugan. Engaged May 19, we have been searching for a home in which to start our own family for a couple of months now. We’ve seen a lot of houses since we started and your house is the first one in which we instantly saw ourselves being truly happy. Your home is everything we had hoped to find, and then some.
We’re recently engaged and very much looking forward to living together so that we don’t have to continue driving through the stupid Harbor Tunnel every time we want to see each other. We’ve been looking at houses all over this frickin’ state, and we’ve seen a bunch of dumps that are across from gas stations, decorated in Late ’60’s Widower, or conveniently situated way out in the middle of nowhere. We saw your house and wanted to go rent the moving van that afternoon.
Before we started looking, we did what every young couple does and wrote a list of things that would make up our dream home. We included everything we wanted, knowing that there would be things that we would probably have to compromise on along the way. Two of the things on that list, which we felt sure we’d have to go without, were a green house and a wood working shop. We were immediately in love with your house, so you can only imagine the goosebumps we got upon going into the backyard and discovering two things we never thought we’d find!
We’re still in shock, and we can’t describe to you how excited we are without getting really, really weird about it. We’d talk to you about karma, and pre-destiny, and you’d be fidgeting with your car keys wondering if it would be rude just to run away from us.
Another thing we both discovered when talking about the house after viewing it was that we had both envisioned holding our small wedding in the backyard. It has the perfect amount of space for a ceremony and reception, and we would love to share that treasure with our families.
Seriously. With the flowers and the guy in the corner playing guitar and everything.
In closing, should you decide to accept our offer, we feel our talents and interests would ensure that your family’s home is well cared for and filled with joy.
We can make you and your late father proud, I promise you that.
Again, we thank you for reviewing our offer.
Please God, accept our offer.
