After tons of showings, multiple second showings, and four offers - we finally have a written contract! Now we just to make it through the option period and have a good inspection.

It's been a process for sure, full of ups and downs. It will all be worth it once we are in our lovely new home!

Good for you! I just hope the appraiser is honest too!

Thanks, I hope so too! I don't *think* we'll have a problem with the appraisal, there was a much smaller one story on our street that sold for over $5k more than we are settling for. Only time will tell!

Congratulations!
So happy for you!

CONGRATULATIONS, Hfawn! So happy here for you!

Keep us up-dated on the progress...

Congratulations! That's so exciting! I hope all goes smoothly.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! All appendages are crossed as you get through those next few steps. It's amazing how stressful these steps are! Eventhough you know your house is in good shape, we lost sleep worrying about stupid things that could go wrong - DON'T DO THAT!

More congrats to you!!!!! and yes, do not lose sleep. People say that the inspectors 'have' to find something no matter how 'dumb', so just be prepared for a silly little nothing. We were written up for LINT IN THE DRYER TRAP!!!!

laughing about it now!!!!!!!!!

CJO
You hav e to be kidding!! What some inspectors won't do to justify their job.

Hfawn - Congratulations! I am sure you will be on pins and needles from now until closing.

If it was just a comment in passing - not a problem - he was just writing what he saw. As long as he didn't write the dryer up as deficient.

WHOOOO HOOOOOOO!

Things still moving along towards closing Hfawn???

I know it's been a while so I thought I would update. The original buyer ended up backing out, he couldn't get his financing on track to be ready to close when we needed him to. We ended up switching realtors, which left us with almost a month of being off the market while trying to get our previous realtor to release us.

Our new realtor has been fantastic, we had a ton of showings and three offers in a month! We wound up going with the third one as it was cash and had a quick closing. If all goes well, we will have the keys in hand for our new home this afternoon - as soon as we get our HUD-1 statement from the sale of our home which will be completed today. It's been a frustrating road to get here, but so glad we will finally be able to breathe a giant sigh of relief and be able to move on to the next phase in our life!

HAPPY FOR YOU!!

Congratulations! Very Happy for you!

Very happy to hear! Please keep us in the loop until the closing is, uh, closed. :-)

Hugs to you!!!!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!
