Congratulations Lynsey!! Is it final yet? Have you for sure gotten it?:)

We for sure have agreed on a price and that's about it.... we have a few conditions that need to be met first. Tomorrow we have a meeting with the bank so the financing should be in place by Monday - that's one condition. We have a house inspection scheduled for tomorrow evening, and that's another condition. The last condition is the sale of the condo. That's the one I'm worried about. The sellers have agreed to give us 6 weeks to sell the condo, but if they have another offer in that time, they can give us 48 hours to sell the condo, or remove all conditions. We NEED to sell the condo because the profit will be going towards closing costs, etc. So basically if they get another offer they want to entertain before our condo is sold, we're out of luck.

Wow Lindsey, this reminds me of when I bought the home I am in!
I wasn't looking either, but saw this house on the market and went to see it, just for a 'looksie'.. well I fell in love with it right away. It felt like home. So I put in a offer, put my other house up for sale. The other house sold fast. Actually the first guy that looked at it bought it! His first look, he said the master bedroom was too small. So I figured other people would think the same... it was small! So I took my queen bed out, replaced it with a twin. A few days later, he asked to see it again.
And made a offer! Sold!!!
I had a few people wanting the house I had put in a offer for, owners wanted it gone today. Had a few scares, but I got it!
Still here, still feels like home, still love it.

Anyway, good luck to you, your condo will sell!!! Then you will have your dream home. So exciting!!!

OK Lindsey...I'm holding my breath for you!! Only 48 hours notice if they get another offer makes me nervous, but it HAS been on the market all this time. Hmmm... It's a good thing you and Scott are young and can take all this stress:eek:

The house is magnificent Lindsey! I am sure you will sell the condo quickly. You just finished fixing it up, so whoever looks at it will be thrilled.

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed!!!:bighug::bighug::bighug:

Ugh. The listing is not very good. There are hardly any pictures, so she's coming back to take more today I think. The last picture doesn't even show our place! Anyways I'm not very impressed with the listing, but at least we do have a showing this morning.

Well that was fast! Got a full price offer this morning, already filled out a counter offer (about the amount the person has to put down when conditions close for more security on my end) and that's that! I should get something back by 7 tonight, and the place might be sold by the end of next week!
The person asked for possession on April 15th, which means I may have less than a month left in the condo! Ugh! Time to start packing!

Blueyes 03-18-2010 03:47 PM

OH MY GOSH!!!!! Lindsey... WOOO-HOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DianaB 03-19-2010 05:40 AM

I didn't think that it would take long to sell your condo!! You've put so much work into it and it looks so nice that I would think that anyone would be thrilled with it!!! Congratulations on your new home and selling the condo!!! How exciting!!!!

Lindsey 03-19-2010 06:18 AM

Thank you sooooooo much! The condo sale should be finalized next week, and the house people have promised not to look at any other offers until the end of next week, so we have time to get everything through for the sale! We had the house inspection yesterday and there are a few minor things to fix or keep an eye on but nothing major! The inspector was very impressed with the quality of work!

What good news Lindsey! That was so quick!

You are now homeowners, and what a beautiful home it is!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Congratulations Lynsey!!!!! I'm soooo happy for you!:)

Janet 03-21-2010 06:09 AM

That's wonderful Lindsey!!! I'm so happy for you. Your condo is just beautiful, but I think you're going to like the privacy of a house. You're doing great!!!
