We had the inspection of the house today. It took 3 hours but it went really well. There were mainly only small minor issues. Nothing to really worry about. Now we just have to negotiate some repairs. And wait on the results of the radon test.
Oh and we sat and talked with the owner and his mom for a while and meet their dog Daisy. Turns out I was right about the Sears house thing!! And she is willing to give me all the candles she has to put in the windows at Christmas!

Congratulations on your Sears house! I'll be looking forward to seeing pictures of the interior. Have there been any major updates or have they mostly left the original fixtures and woodwork intact?

Sadly most of the fixtures appear to be from the 50s at the oldest. There is a light in the breakfast nook (which has lost it's benches) that the owner told us was original. I am going to be on the hunt for at the least reproductions of 1920s style fixtures to replace them with if anyone has suggestions about sources for those.
The windows/mouldings/flooring/doors are mostly still original so that is good news.
