Why aren't I feeling over the moon?? It was only on the market for 3 weeks, and we got alot less than what we wanted, oh well.
We still having open homes this weekend, so if someone else comes along with a better offer, we will see what happens!   ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Three weeks to sell a house in this market is an absolutely fantastic result! Congratulations. Worth a price hit in order to get the house that you really want.
Death and taxes are the only certainties in life, but these days i'd like to nominate mortgages as a close third ... We're building and won't be in til the end of july, and in three open homes, we've had one person look and that was a nosy neighbour. |
