Got an offer on our house yesterday, sent a counter-offer
today. If all goes well- and it should, unless the buyer has
just changed their mind- we should be under contract today
or tomorrow.
I'm a lot more excited than I read. Might be time for a few
exclamation marks!!!
This is the second house we've sold, so we've been through
the process of selling twice, and buying twice. There are
plenty of things that can go wrong, but the process isn't
that complex, so there's a great chance that nothing will
go wrong. Time alone will tell.
The closing date is in 30 days. We're mostly packed, and
have gone through a Marie Kondo simplification process once
or twice, so I don't feel a rush to pack. The inspection
period is 15 days... to me, this is the "I can change my
mind" period for the buyer. We'll wait to pack until that is
past.
We have a storage unit down the road, ready to go. I'm not
one for storage units, but since we don't know exact what
we're going to do, it's necessary and perhaps even wise. My
friend owns the business, so he gave me a good deal on a
larger unit.
Also, we have been out of town, so I'm behind on gopher
reading. When things slow down a bit, I'll have to catch
up.
