Selling our current townhouse. Went on the market and had an offer in 6 hours for over the asking price. Score....now we really need to find something! We took the offer and they are going FHA/first time buyer, so they needed a little time. That was fine because we hadn't stated to look yet at for a new house a couple states away yet. We went Friday, June 30th, to look at ten different places. We found 3 we loved, and put an offer in on the one that we could see ourselves in the most. Our back up has been up for a while so if for some reason inspections and/or appraisals mess something up, we have a back-up!
Will check back in as the process continues!
There's my neighbor.. Following and keeping fingers crossed for you that everything goes smoothly...
Hey...long time! How have you been! Moving even closer to you now!
Update...Inspection happened yesterday. Started from the basement and worked up. Nothing at all and I thought we were done. He then peeked in the attic...Mold!! Ugh. Oh well. Remediation was put in the works by both Realtors yesterday...hoping to come to an agreement once the report comes back.
I know and that is exciting.. I was just there recently.. That sucks. Hopefully, it will all be worked out. I see in anothe thread you are using NFCU, they are awesome. They are the people I used and they gave me $2000 back for using their realty program [ I used Sotheby's]. So take advantage of every perk they have to offer--

Has been an easy process so far, unlike what I have read around here, in regards to NFCU. We were going to look, but an agent was recommended to use by several people in that area, so went with her. She has been great so far.

Thats good. A good agent makes a world of difference. The agent we used negotiated so much to the point where the closing attorney was like I can't believe all the things she got for you. She was ruthless to the seller after inspection showed flaws. At some point, I felt bad for the seller. She was an agent herself but terrible at negotiating.
