NCR: I am so tired of house negotiations!

We have been negotiating on a REO (bank owned foreclosure) since last Tuesday.  Bank "time" is soooooooo slow!  We are getting close, so I really hope it works out, but it is d.r.a.g.g.i.n.g.  We almost offered on a short sale earlier this year.  I am so glad we didn't because that time line would have driven me nuts!

Keep your fingers crossed.  This would give me a dedicated craft room!!!!

  • MH and I refuse to look at any short sales because they take so long. Luckily for us, there are a lot of foreclosures in our area so we will stick with one of those.
  • Crossing everything for you, except eyes...I can't read the nest with crossed eyes. lol

    And no this is not my picture.Stick out tongue

    It's hard but hang in there! We bought a short sale awhile ago and started looking for houses in February, saw this house in March and were able to close at the end of May. We had to go through two banks too since they had an 80/20 mortgage. So hopefully that gives you some hope!!

  • Jealous of everyone that can even entertain buying a house right now (being roughly $55K underwater on a very responsible mortgage that you've already sunk $50K into will do that to a girl!) but, for you, I'll put it all aside and wish you bundles of luck. Besides, the more people that buy homes (responsibly), the more likely that we will be able to sell before our mortgage (and kids!) mature(s). :-p
  • Thanks y'all.  I REALLY want this house (and I know I am not supposed to fall in love before the deal is sealed, but I did).  It would be perfect for us. 

    Cmeon--I feel for ya with the house.  My brother and his family have a home in FL and they are in the same boat as y'all.  It stinks.
