Housing Adventure: Offer Accepted
It looks we’re a few steps closer to buying a home. We put an offer in on Saturday and our realtor called us last night to say that they wanted another $10,000 to cover the points we requested. We said no, that wasn’t going to happen, we refused to go higher on the price but we did reduce it to just 2 points (which we needed to do anyway according to our mortage broker).
I figured we’d lost the house, but I got a call today and they accepted our compromise and it looks like all system go for getting the house. Now, I’m refusing to get excited because we’ve made it to this point before. I’ll get excited after all the inspections come up clean and it appraises high enough.
But, if all does go well, we’ll be walking into our new home come the middle of June. Guess we need to start packing — didn’t we just unpack!?
