Listed it about a month ago and had no action on it what so ever. The first to open houses resulted in nobody coming in...... we were really starting to doubt this move was supposed to happen.
Our agent called Monday morning and asked if we could show the house at noon..... kinda short notice, but a showing is a showing, at least someone was interested. By 3 pm he called back and said they had made an offer that was within $1000 of what we were hoping to get and the buyers only request was that we did not fill in the pond in the back yard (I was going to haul three loads of dirt this morning to fill it in) and if we would leave the hanging pot rack in the kitchen......... No mention of painting the living room (which is burgandy and tan) or Holley's room (which is three shades of blue). Both on which I expected to have to paint.
The buyers want to close by the end of June, the day after Debi has to be in The Woodlands. Come to find out, the other three houses for sell within 4 blocks of us (all for less money), wouldn't show their houses on short notice and the buyers are currently living out of state and planning on heading home Tuesday.
It's really cool to see things work out this....... Another answered prayer!
Of course we have no idea where we're going to live when we get the The Woodlands. We'd planned on heading down this next weekend to look at a couple houses that would great, but our church has scheduled a pot-luck farewell lunch for us on Sunday (they apparently forgot to see if we could attend..... but we'll be there). I think we're gonna try to swing through Wichita Falls and look at Fireman's travel trailer for temporary lodging til we can close on a house.
Y'all that are so inclined, please pray that the closing on our house goes smooth and that the house He has lined up for us is still available when get to The Woodlands.
