404...No Problem.

Today's post is number 404.

But I have good news.

Last night we accepted an offer on the house! The house was on the market just 7 days. We could have busted the guy's balls a bit...but we decided to sell at 5% below asking. Not bad in this market, I'd say. And it's enough to get us into a larger than expected house.

There is one issue- they want to close on July 17th. Yeah.....we haven't even seen houses yet. This could be interesting.

Wahoo! I guess you better start looking at houses sooner rather than later. BTW, I love the post's title.

Wow! Aren't you precocious in the house selling department! Congratulations. Now if you want a bigger house, say 2200 square feet, 4 bedrooms, big laundry room perfect for additional use as a dye studio, brand new gutted to studs kitchen with cherry cabinets, 3 recently gutted to studs and renovated bathrooms, newly renovated big family room, all new interior doors, all windows replace within the last 7 years, 2 year old central air, - well. Mine's not on the market yet, but no real estate agent involved would save you about 20 grand. One town north of you, supposed to be some of the best schools in the country. Ok, sales pitch over. :)
