NWR: Think we found our house! UPDATE
We went to see a home today that I had written off weeks ago, and I continued to write it off as we sat in the driveway. I was annoyed it had an ugly vinyl fake-stone exterior, it wasn't a walkable area, that the neighbors' looked creepy, everything.
I LOVED IT once we got inside! Fireplace, redone kitchen, finished basement with a huge unfinished side - big enough for a craft room and a tool/work area, master bedroom with 13 foot ceiling & balcony, huge 2 other bedrooms, 2 full baths, laundryroom on 2nd floor, omg I dieeeeee. Sorry for the crazy rave that no one cares about but I'm so excited!
******EDIT:
Ok, so we heard back about our next step. Our realtor and his coworker are going back to look at the house, take notes, etc, and then they are also going to get the info about the house & property from the city to give us a bigger picture. He told FH that they'll work on putting together a range of prices we could begin our offers at. But, here's the weird thing - he has spoken to the seller's rep 3 times now, setting up the viewing, she called him to ask how we liked it, and the third time was to call her and say we wanted to go to the next step.
NOW she claims, oh, didn't you know there was a bid on the house? They bid, we countered, but haven't heard from them in a few days.
I'm really suspicious about this because no one said anything before...and everyone who has experience, don't buyers only have 48 hours to give their next offer? or is that sellers?
I'm still really excited...if there is a bid we can see if we can match it, and if there isn't, then we might have a house!
