Things change fast!

Another update!

On Friday night we put an offer on the house with the deep garage!  And when we got off the plane in Lafayette on Saturday we had a text from our realtor saying that the owners accepted the offer!  We were shocked!  The owners were planning on having an open house on Sunday, so we were certain that they would send us a counter offer and wait until the open house was over to see if they got any other offers.  But, obviously, we were wrong :)

Also, on Thursday afternoon we received a call from our realtor in Lafayette saying that the people who were going to buy our house wanted out.  We were very confused.  We had just responded to their requests from the inspector's report and we were willing to fix all of the major things that were wrong with the house.  They never negotiated or anything.  They just wanted out.  But we weren't willing to give up.  So they forfeited their earnest money.  We think they may have been first-time home buyers and just got cold feet.  So we are back at the beginning with selling our house.  We are planning on having an open house this coming Sunday so hopefully we will get some good feedback from that.

So we have two houses now!

I'll try to keep you up to date :)
