Holy Crap

We sold the house already.

Nice!!

Congrats. Did you get what you wanted for it? How did the process go?

It sold at the Agent's open, so there wasn't much process at all. The woman fell in love with the house and wrote an escrow check right there. She is taking it at the full asking price without any haggling at all!

Woo hoo! It happens really fast when you've been conscientious about getting it ready. At least where the market's still functioning....

Congratulations! I hope you got what you wanted for it.

The buyer is giving us full price with no haggling. It is a huge relief!

Congratulations! I'm not surprised - from the pictures it looks fantastic.
Do you have a new house to move to yet?

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2009-06-12 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Not yet. We go look at houses on Saturday. We do have short list of house we have found on the internet, so hopefully we will like them when we see them in person.

Wow! Congratulations.

Yowza. That was super-fast.

WOW! Congratulations!

Holy crap! Great work!

[identity profile] bjarvis.livejournal.com 2009-06-12 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG, that's amazingly fast! Does that means you should have priced it $200k higher? :-)

How soon is closing? I'm guessing your plans to purchase elsewhere are shifting into extremely high gear currently?

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2009-06-12 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep. We go looking at houses tomorrow!

'Grats!

[identity profile] billeyler.livejournal.com 2009-06-12 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm stunned AND pleased for you!

Congratulations.

If you are still interested in looking up this way, there are several houses in our immediate area with for-sale signs on them... including a cute little well-maintained house next door to one you looked at up here a while back. It's a little smaller than your current house but has a garage, and is on a 16,000 sq ft lot that they say is subdividable. "Opportunities abound!"

But wherever you choose to look, good luck and enjoy the process. Let us locals know if you need/want help along the way.

As we narrowed down what we wanted we realized we really, really want a bigger house. I think we will end up in Kenmore/Lake Forest Park since that keeps us in between our two commutes.

That is GREAT!!
I am hopeful now that I will be able to sell mine. I was worried about it sitting on the market for a long time or having to take a lot less.
maybe you guys want to look into moving to Poulsbo -
3 bedroom, 2 bath, deck, hot tub, 2 1/2 car garage/shop, 5 wooded acres, secluded, private, and damn cute!!!

Heh. Ron works in Redmond...I don't think Poulsbo would work for us...
