We're doing the Happy Dance
Okay, let me first say that we haven't gotten to the closing table yet--we still have inspections and the appraisal. I really don't think that there's going to be anything major found in either of those hurdles to prevent us from closing, but you never count on the closing absolutely happening until you're getting up from the closing table, handing your keys over to the new owner!
We put the house on the market late Monday night (the 14th--Happy Anniversary, Mom & Dad!); had two showings the following Tuesday; a 2nd showing on Wednesday; a contract & counter-offer on Thursday; and accepted contract on Friday.
We are thrilled.
The closing date is October 14--it was supposed to be the 16th, but the closing attorney is going on a fishing vacation, so we had to move it back 2 days. Now the next step is finding Mom & Dad a house--we've looked at a few that have NEARLY everything, but not quite, so we're sure that the house is out there, we're just not sure when we'll find it!
We are just thrilled, though, that we got a contract that quickly! I guess it has something to do with having a really awesome Realtor who knows her stuff! :)
Our love to all!
