We got a response to our offer yesterday. Basically, the woman was only willing to come off of her too-high-for-the-neighborhood price $1,000. So, we passed. We were ready to put an offer on the other house. We went and looked at it again, and I swear the garage has shrunk since last time we looked at it. The realtor reminded us of a house we looked at mid-June (the day it was listed). We called to see if we could look at it last minute. The owners are in the process of moving, but after hearing we were in the process of making an offer, they let us look. They were SO in the process of moving that there were two Atlas moving trucks in front of their house and boxes EVERYWHERE. But, we had seen the house when it wasn't covered in boxes, we just needed to be reminded of the house.
The owners were there while we looked. It was actually nice because we got lots of information about the neighborhood, house, yard, etc. They were a VERY nice couple and seemed honest about everything. Our realtor explained that we were relocating from Arkansas. They asked where and we told them Bryant. They are moving TO Otter Creek - just a matter of miles from Bryant. Unfortunately, they already found a house :(
We put an offer on that house. We should know something by 10am. HOPEFULLY it will work out. We have talked to the mortgage company and our guy said he thinks he can rush the closing and have it done in a couple of weeks. HOPEFULLY!!!!
I will let you know what happens.
