Need home buying tips, any agents here, or anyone with buying experience? Long
Well, Crap.
Looks like we may have lost this one. I have a flight up there next Friday, have rental car booked, hotel booked, flight, etc.
She called us this morning and someone else has made an offer, and the owners countered. We have to wait till Monday to find out if the potential buyers are going to take the counter. Either way, even if we made an offer right now, it would be a backup offer, if the other buyers back out or something.
I could have gone up yesterday, a week earlier, but the flight would have cost like double.
But even if I did fly up yesterday, it would have gotten an offer on it while I was traveling up there. I'd be even more upset at that point cause all the money spent for the trip. Right now, if we get the call Monday that the other buyers are in negotiations, at least I'll have time to cancel the flight, hotel, car, etc.
This property was perfect, out of town on 4 acres so no neighbors, two car attached garage, plus a 24x40 shop.
Oh well.
To answer someones else's question, Why do we need to buy right now? We don't, but I keep watching the listings just in case we find the perfect property. Just don't want to let the perfect place slip by while we're waiting. Also, its a town of 2000 people, and we want to be on the edge of town, or out of town, so there is a limited number of propertys that will be available at any given time.
Here's a couple pics of the one we were trying for.
