EEEEEEkkkkkkkk!!!!!

So we've officially decided that we're going to put an offer on another house and get ours on the market! I'm very excited b/c this place we've found is really special. I'm also nervous as sin, though! The house we're trying to get is more expensive and needs some cosmetic work, but the yard is better than any I've ever seen. I mean this yard is absolutely superb! Our realtor thinks that in 10 or 15 years someone will buy the house just to knock it down and build on the lot - it's that nice. I'm just nervous b/c I need our house to sell quick so we don't have to worry about it. It's going to be so nice (if it works out - don't want to get my hopes up) to have this yard over the summer. It'll be great for sitting out, kiddie pools, barbeque's, the whole bit. Wish us luck! Also, send any of your friends who are looking to by a house in our direction!

Good luck with your bid! In the words of Delmer in 'O Brother Where Art Thou'...."you ain't no kind of man without a piece of land."

We made our offer last night and haven't heard yet. We anticipate a counter offer. I'll let you all know. The house is off of 75th and Sunnyside. South of where we are now, but still on the North East side. I'll send pics WHEN we get the place - we need to do some painting, etc before I show it off :) The pictures posted on the realtors site are not very good - they don't do the place justice.

Sure enough - we got a counter offer. We're going to "recounter offer"

Remember, after you recounter offer, they will probably recounter your recountered offer...then you're going to have to counter that recounter...and you now how it goes from here...

Strangely enough...that's exactly what happened. it worked out though - we ended up somewhere in the middle of more than we wanted to pay and less than they wanted to sell it for.
