Howdy, Ya'll! I'm Back! « Stuff Important to Me »

I was out of town. I didn't give you a warning, because...well, I just didn't.

I went to Hawaii for about 34 hours to look at condominiums. I think I found a decent one I can live with for a price I can afford. Now we'll see if this bid is accepted.

The other one fell through, obviously. The frustrating part is that it had no offers for 40+ days. The day I put in an offer, so does someone else. If I'd put in my offer a week earlier, they wouldn't have had another choice to consider. And it wasn't the amount of the offer that made the difference. It's that the other buyer had a down payment, and I have to do 100% financing. I'm pre-qualified for much higher than the house I want to buy, so there's little risk that the loan wouldn't be approved...but the seller didn't want to even take that small risk.

There's no other offer on this condominium, so I'm hoping it won't get similarly scuttled.

I was wondering what had happened to the other condo. I'll be interested to find out how it all works out. Keep your faithful readers updated, k? How are the kidlets doing?
