transaction and I'm ready to vomit! ARGGGG
Listed our house last week, had an offer within 48 hours, 24 hours later we had an accepted conditional (on the sale of their house) offer and now 2 days later we have another offer going back and forth and they're nickle and diming us to death!!
Lower price than the offer we accepted but no conditions whatsoever. Hubby keeps lowering the price he's willing to stop at and I'm standing my ground! We're now at $2000 less than the offer we already accepted but we won't go any lower and we're still $4000 apart. They've added a ton of things every time they come back which we (meaning I) keep scratching out -such as hot tub, play structure, gazebo, fridge, stove and basketball net.
We're now at we'll give them the hot tub, play structure and gazebo AND open the pool for them but that's it!
Take it or leave it baby! Hubby's now green and has been in the washroom 20 minutes LOL and MY guts are churning! He just wants this offer accepted so we can force the other to either remove their condition on selling their house or not so either way we'd have a FIRM deal in a couple of days so that we can then approach a bank to get bridge financing to start building our own. If not and we wait until offer one firms up and conditions are removed it will be the middle of May with a closing the beginning of July and we can't get a house built that fast and have NO where to go!!
Ah, the joys and stress of selling your house!! The realtors that we had in (3) said a house of this size and price would probably only get a couple of offers and would probably be on the market for 3-6 months. Now 2 offers in one week and I didn't even want to drop a couple grand if my house is soooo popular! We've dropped 11 grand with this couple, 9 with the conditional first offer and like I said hubby is green! I probably am too, just haven't looked in a mirror
Sitting on the edge of my seat, supposed to be doing my taxes, waiting for the phone to ring....
