Contract Pending...


So Thursday out of the blue, our realtor calls and tells us we have an offer on our house.

Okay.

We're slightly confused, because as far as we knew, no one had been interested enough to come twice, and the last people who walked through came on Sunday.

Apparently, Saturday while we were still in G-town a couple came by twice. They put in an offer Wednesday night. They totally low-balled the offer and we countered telling them don't even bother with another counter 'cause this is as low as we go.

The buyers' realtor told us not to expect to hear anything soon, because they were traveling back to North Dakota. Well, we did hear back soon. They countered again and we told them no.

So all night we freaked out about if they'd accept our counter or totally back out. We both felt pretty confident it'd go through because of some things their realtor said.

This morning right before Ben went into a meeting, our realtor called and said they'd accepted!!

So it's really maybe going to happen! I say really because it looks to be that way. And maybe because anything could happen I guess. They are closing on their home in N.D. on September 5 and want to close on ours the same day. Hopefully everything goes well on their sale so it won't mess ours up.

And did ya catch that? September 5?! That's like three weeks!!! Holy cow! So guess what we'll be doing this weekend?

Packing.
