Summary
Jeff and Cierra moved to Florida and bounced around from apartment to apartment, but then decided to start preparing to buy a home once their lease was up. The deadline gave them a goal and helped motivate them to make the jump. After getting in touch with a unicorn, the rest is history and now Jeff and Cierra are living in their first house!
Jeff and Cierra found the townhouse and wanted to put in an offer. So, they negotiated and did what they could to sweeten the deal, but ultimately the sellers went with a different offer. While Jeff and Cierra were crushed, their luck turned for the better. The previous offer fell through and they were next in line. So, they made the deal and here they are!
