Getting cold feet!
My husband and I have been looking for homes for months now, honestly...about 9 months. Every time that we put in an offer, we get out bid. Or we will set up hoes to look at over the weekend (the only time we have to look for a place) and there is an offer on it come the weekend. This market is so tough! So, we finally put in for an offer on a home where there are no multiple bidders, and it is in our price range, and is turn key. But now, I am having such cold feet! I know that it is too early to have cold feet considering that it will take a few days to even hear back on our offer. I just can't believe that it is happening!
Re: Getting cold feet!
If I were you, I would sit down and really think about WHY you have cold feet. Easier said than done, but analyze if this is a house you really want or one you are taking because you are a bit worn out and it "hits the checks on the list". Make a list of the things you don't like about the house...or even about owning a house in general...and then decide if the positives are still worth it.
I suspect it might just be one of those irrational fears we all have when making a big decision. I could never have been more sure of both the man I married and the house I bought...yet I still had those moments of "Ah! Should I really do this? Should I? SHOULD I?" Then immediately laugh at myself and say, "Of course! I've seen the rest and found the best!"
