The Bank Accepted Our Offer

On Wednesday of last week Drew , myself and our very patient realtor Kat went and looked at more houses to buy. We found one that we really liked so we put an offer on it that same day. That Friday the bank came back and counter offered our original offer so we countered back( we are pros at this game by now) . Today Kat called Drew and told him that the bank honored everything we asked for and they accepted our offer, which by the way was less than what they originally asked for :-) . Drew called me at work and asked if I was sitting down , he said that the bank just received a higher offer from another buyer so we are out, then he said just kidding we got the house. First I said "your a horrible person, but I love you". Drew's a great joker ...haha, not funny! I don't think that I could of handled another one of those disappointing phone calls. We signed the paper work and our closing date is Dec 9th. Now all we have to do is wait for is the inspector and the loan to process and the house is ours. I have always wanted a wood burning fireplace in my home so I really hope that everything is good with the inspection. This house seems pretty safe and sound. Can you believe this is the 3rd house that we have put an offer on ??? People say its a good time to buy a house, what they didn't tell you is that everyone wants your house ( Uggh!)
