Doing the dance of Joy!!!!

September 16th, 2006 at 08:38 pm

We put up signs last week, I printed up 300 fliers to put out and our spec house went up for sale. (We are just doing the sheetrock now)
WE had our first lookers yesterday. My dh called me and said bring over the covenants, they will be back. They came back yesterday afternoon.
They came back again today. They gave me a deposit check for $2500!!!
I am so excited. Of course, my dh houses usually sell first because they are such quality. He does all the inside work completely by himself, I mean everything, paint, trim, tile, hardwood flooring, cabinets, etc.
We asked $400,000and the offer was for $400,000! (maybe too cheap?)
It is a 3500 sq. ft. house with 12 foot ceilings, a courtyard with pond, and a killer mountain view on 1.7 acres!!
I am doing the dance of joy and adding that money to my challenge money!
prev. total $13,814.00
today 2,500.00
new total $16,314.00

    Hallelujah! Julie, I'm so glad to hear you have a firm deal on that house. I've been waiting to see how you'd do when you put it on the market.

    Dance all the way to the bank. Hurrah!

    Thanks, they have to get financing, but it is encouraging to have it sell quickly in a softening market. I know some spec houses going into their 2nd year of just sitting.
