This is just a quick note to let people know I'm alive and well. I'll write about the Seattle trip some other time. For now we're house-hunting and I'm still volunteering.
It's not 3% financing, it's a 3% discount on the price of the house. It looks like we'll be able to get something like 5% financing on a 30-year mortgage, which still strikes me as being reasonable.
All the same, if I could get a 3% mortgage I'd probably pounce on it...
