House Search and Debt Update 10/15

The first offer we put on a house was rejected and at this point it looks like we were outbid. However, the property has been under contract before and the deal fell through so we're not totally giving up on that house. In the meantime, we're looking at other houses.


Goals for Debt Payoff:
Pay off zero interest card #1 1000
Pay off credit card 1,542
Pay off zero interest card #2 2,700
Pay off undergrad 1,824
Pay off Bar Loan #1 8,865
Pay off Bar Loan #2 8,857

Here's my continued pay-off plan from now until Christmas:

10/29 - pay 1,000 on card
 find additional savings somewhere else to really pay off cc?

11/12 - pay 1,100 on zero interest card

Use expected check from Greg's old practice (1,600) to pay off remaining balance of zero interest card.

11/26 - put 1,000 on undergrad

12/10 - buy plane tickets for Disney (1000?)

12/24 - pay off hospital bill (500) and any leftover balances on cc's

At this point all we will have on this round one list is about $750 left on my undergrad loan, and just over $17K on our bar loans. If we end up closing on a house around this time, we'd just continue to pay minimum payments on these. If we still don't have a mortgage, the next phase would involve paying off the bar loans, hopefully about 2K/month, with our tax return also going toward the debt reduction. Under this plan we'd be done with the bar loans by June or July 2016.
