Traditional seller also. Contributing $3500 to closing and home warranty. Haven't done appraisal yet and am expecting it to come back in the 170's so there will probably be another change in terms soon.

That is a GREAT deal PRC. Did you use a buyers broker or did you negotiate that deal yourself??? I always wonder if you do better with a broker. Hubby and I are thinking about a new build in Delaware but I'm not too keen on RE brokers. I have heard/seen too many horror stories.

We negotiated it ourselves. We are using their mortgage company so that helped a lot as well.

GoodCredBen — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 17:28:17 GMT

LOL the original list price for mine was 179,900.....

We lowered them a lot

It was on the market for 4 days, we offered 150,000

They countered for 156,000

We countered for 153,000

Ugh seeing all your low home prices are makes me jealous. I could get two homes where you live with what is costs for one but that's the price I pay for living in San Diego. But.....if I had tried to buy 6-7 years ago there would be no way I could afford a single family home.

Miss Piano, if it helps, we are paying $292,000 for our home.... and we are in AZ - that is if they give us the loan!!
