Can It Be True???

Could this long ordeal be over? F. calls (and I happen to be staring at my computer screen, so see an email from our mortgage broker flash up just as the phone rings). The selling agent says the seller has accepted our offer -BUT - the agent wants to review the offer agreement when the seller FedExes it back. He is concerned that retired-real-estate-attorney- seller may have made changes to the agreement without telling him. But tentatively...full steam ahead!!

F. starts talking inspection, pest report, sewer lateral, and my head starts to whirl. Mortgage Broker wants to set up a meeting pronto to get our paperwork and do some signing. Do I keep a brown bag in my office? Must call the Husband.

My boss stops by, tells me to just think of it as Monopoly money, smile and sign. If you give it too much thought, he says, you'd never do it.

I pull up the house on the street view of Google Maps and stare at it for a long, long time.

  1. Jeff's right. Also, you WILL have buyers remorse - especially at first.

  2. I forgot to reiterate "HALLELUJAH" and "CONGRATULATIONS" and post a picture! From Google Maps if you have to! :)
