There are unfairities happening in the Undersized Urbanite contests.

Just like Kyle said, I feel emotionally attached to each of the houses and am so grateful for the contestants and their hard work.  And that’s why this is very, very hard for me right now.

I am so sorry to all of the contestants, but voting has had to be suspended.  It may or may not be opened up again, and the voting may or may not have to start over again.

It has come to my attention that there is a glitch in the system, and I am asking my voting server to evaluate the situation.

If they are able to re-adjust the votes per the rules of the contest, then voting will re-open and remain open for the duration of the 7 day period that was initially intended for voting.  If they are unable to adjust the votes per the contest rules (3 votes per household, one vote per dollhouse), then I will decide how to proceed on Sunday.

I will update you all as soon as the situation changes.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.

In the mean time, you can still view all of the contestants miniature homes here.  

UPDATE: Voting has been re-opened.  I apologize again for the need to shut down voting for the last 26 hours.  After evaluating the options, it is best to close the voting at the originally scheduled time of 8:00 pm (EST) on Sunday, May 12th due to part of the prize package being time-sensitive. 

Please remember to follow the rules of voting that were originally laid out: 3 votes per person, one vote per dollhouse.  

Thank you for your patience.

    Well that’s a bummer. 🙁

    At least you caught the glitch now though. Better than finding out after voting ended.

    That is a bummer, I really don’t want to ask people to vote again.

      I hear you Ginger. I didn’t want to either, but it looks like we’ll be able to get it sorted out and resume voting on Sunday. I’ll keep you updated!

House update! The realtor is still confused about House update! The realtor is still confused about why "it's such a popular house." When she arrived yesterday for a showing, there were 8 cars in the driveway. 😃
We had three offers the first day, one of whom hadn't even seen the house in person yet.
Surprise! The house is going on the market today. Surprise! The house is going on the market today. (Long story that I'll fill you in on when I have more than 2 seconds.)

But we're once again with a realtor that calls our house "unique" instead of calling it a Mid Century Modern. 🤦‍♀️
.
We can't count how many locals came into this house and mentioned that those windows should be removed and walled up and the beams cut off. And then it would be a "normal" house. 🤯

Still can't really identify with people in this area. 🤷‍♀️ SO happy to be going back home to the East coast TOMORROW!

We're getting back into the house restoration and we'll be working on the powder room in the master bed. 
Guys. It's bad. Swipe to see.
And we're going to try to make it pretty with a super tiny budget of $100 in 4 weeks and we're joining the #100roomchallenge to keep us (me) motivated.
