Well, they want much for the house than we are willing to pay. (like $50k more...)
Damn.
No house warming party for us just yet.
But at least we don't have to move anytime soon....I hate moving.
So we are back to the drawing board...trolling the property web sites...spending our Saturdays at open houses....wish us luck.
Maybe the perfect place is just around the corner and we can drive by this old place and wish the new owners well. (or moon 'em...I haven't decided which)

that was not the house for you, young jedi.

You'll laugh inside knowing that the new owners paid more than it was worth. We had the same thing happen, except we didn't even get to make an offer.
My husband was in love with this particular house that he looked at before me. The only problem was, between the time that he saw it and the time I saw it (6 hours), they jacked the price up an additional $45k. Apparently some friends told them they could get more for their house.
Then we looked at this house and we both loved it. Sometimes things happen for the right reasons.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the support. You have no idea. $45k?!?! That's crazy!
I'm finding this process very hard because your home is such an emotional place but you still have to remain separated because of the money money aspect.
We'll get there, it just might take a while.

I'll tell Colin to hold off on the keg then.
