We Got A Contract!!!

But it's a low offer and they want us to pay closing costs, which in case you didn't know, is a lot of freakin' money. $5,000 in this case. Somebody's getting rich off of real estate but it isn't the buyer or the seller! We counter-offered so we'll see what happens...stay tuned!

Hope they come up to your price. I'd bet they love your house and were just hoping to get a better deal.

I'm with Bill. Do what you gotta do, but don't give it away!

P.S. Congrats! It was a little over the week I predicted... but not much!

I hope you countered slightly above what you can live with :)

THe agents are the folks getting rich off real estate. Except for the rare few investors who are slick enough to see a property they can buy and flip quickly for fast $$$... and most of those are agents as well.

I hope the weekend brings you a signed contract!!
