THEY ACCEPTED OUR OFFER!!!!!

I just found out this morning that the seller of the house we want just accepted it!! We are under contract now waiting on home inspection and bug inspection.

Oh yeah while we were meeting with the realtor last night she got a text from the listing agent that said someone was wanting to view it a second time on Saturday and they were very interested. Now since we are in contract the house can not be sold out from under us which we were afraid of since there was more than one couple also interested in the house!! Today is a GREAT day!

Re: THEY ACCEPTED OUR OFFER!!!!!

  • woo hoo!!!!  Congrats!

    That house is beautiful!  What did your grandma say about buying rather than building?

  • Oh gosh it was not that good. I went over there on Tuesday and played the conversation like I was asking her opinion and these are the options I got....she would give me 5 more acres of land for a total of 10, we could add on, we needed to wait till the first of the year, we should stay there and not worry about buying or building. She kept telling me this is my home place and TT has never had anything like this and I should not leave. When I left I was very upset and crying TT comforted me and told me to call my dad (since my grandmother is his mom). He told me not to worry about her he thinks once she sees the house she will fall in love with the house and TT and I have to do what is best for us and not worry about her.

    After we submitted our offer my parents wanted us to stop by their house so we could talk about the offer and what to expect next. While we were over there my grandmother dropped by to give my mom her birthday present she would not even look at me and did not want to hug me. But I think once she sees the house and tours it that she will fall in love like we did.

    Oh yeah I am not sure who is more excited for us...TT and I or my parents. My dad last night was cracking us up he was so excited!

  • Congratulations!!!!

    I'm sorry your grandmother didn't have a better reaction, but like your dad said, you guys have to do what's best for you.  She'll come around.

  • Yeah!!! That is great. I love that house.

    Sorry about your grandmother but you are doing what is best for you and she'll come around once she sees it and once she realizes that you guys will eventually build there but this is what you need to do right now.
