Okay.. we are putting in a offer on a house tomorrow. It is 4 bd. 2 baths with a huge yard!!! The house even has one of those permenant redwood treehouse/play structures in the back yard that has to stay!

We found a really great loan and rate. 100% financing. 30 Year FIXED mortgage, no closing costs, NO PMI and a 30 year rate of .... 5.357%!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a rural USDA loan. For rural development.. it is just crazy ... and awesome and everything in between!!! WOW!!!

So we are making the offer first thing in the morning.. so we need some good vibes.. the seller is VERY motivated.... so we could end up bumping off quite a bit more than we orginally though...

I am soooooooooo excited.. I feel like a kid going to Disney World!!

Good luck Mine









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...

they rejected your first offer?  did they counter offer?  do you want to make a 2nd offer?

i've been through this myself, a time or two......

yeh.. rejected.. the counter offer too. She does not want a clause about costs either.. LIke.. we can pull out if it looks like repairs on aything are more than a certain amount. She wants full price (but she is asking to much) no budging on anything. It has been on the market for 260 days for pete's sake!!! Now we can understand why.. so we are going to keep looking.. let her sit on her little house for another 50 days and if we haven't found anything we are going to make her the same orginial offer... LOL

sorry to hear that.  obviously, she is not a motivated seller....apparently she can afford to sit and wait until she gets her price.

your conditions are reasonable...in fact, i wouldn't make an offer without them.  perhaps if you make the same offer every 30 days it will eventually wear her down!

besides, if you keep looking, you may find something else. 

i know it can get depressing....been there....but in retrospect, i was glad i didn't get anything i made an offer on before i made the offer on the house i bought in 1993.

will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Mine -- That's just AWESOME!!!

As a real estate agent I can tell you from experience that having a night to think over a good (but rejected) offer will often change a seller's mind!

When's the housewarming party???
