Offer Accepted... So Far...

Well.... the Seller accepted our offer but now it goes to third party approval which is the Bank. This means 4 to 6 weeks of waiting on pins and needles as the Bank processes the paperwork. In the meantime anyone could come in and make a higher offer on the house which the Seller could jump on after all they want to get as much out of this Short Sale as possible. Keep in mind that they already had an offer which we came in higher on so I'm sure there is one disappointed Buyer out there. Sorry people!!!

So even though we have made an offer and even though the offer has been accepted, it still isn't for sure until all of the paperwork is complete, signed, sealed and delivered which will take some time. I believe I have mentioned in past posts that I'm not a very patient person.

In the meantime we still have plenty to do around here getting our projects completed in our house... painting, trim and moulding put up, the garage cleaned out and lots to sort through to determine what to send to the DI and what to put out in a garage sale. FYI I have an oven, microwave, giant white storage cupboard (good for magazines and books) and an entertainment center that will be going into the garage sale but if you are interested in these items and want to see them first let me know.

I remember when the For Sale by Owner sign kept getting moved around the neighborhood as a joke. I will be so sad when/if there is a sign on my lawn. :(
