Re: i can't find a house!!!!
maybe you should try looking with an agent. I would even go out wuth an agent and look at the house you saw at the open house. Maybr they could negotiate for you. Sometimes if you bid to high they feel that they didn't ask enough. I know it's a pain in the but we had quite a few let downs but as they say there is a perfect house out their for you. you may find something you like better. Good luck

Re: i can't find a house!!!!
I know it *****, but honestly in this competitive market you need to bid asking or higher these days I feel. You are competing with builders who come in with all cash. We lost one house that we bid 15k over!!!! It is insane out there.
