Sounds like you have a great day planned. I remember that day when you first quit the Real Thing. I can't believe a whole year has passed- well done you on sticking with it. In fact I was watching the Masters last night and remembering how we chatted about it here last year. Doesn't time fly?!
I'm looking forward to the DB party- let me know the dates
We are having the same problem with banks and short sales here. They are tying people up for months with no response. Have wife withdraw her offer or in some other way convey to the bank that the offer is dead before moving on with another offer. She does not want to get stuck in 2 contracts at the same time.
(((((((Lisa))))))) I can't believe that it has been a year, either! It really brings home how long these situations go on, doesn't it?
I can move the dates to any time you are here! Or have a DB get-together for two!
(((((Sara))))) I don't get what they gain by dragging out the short sale. I guess they could be hoping to get a little more out of it, but time is money..... or at least that's the way I learned it! The second one is an actual bank owned foreclosure, so it seems that are actually interested in moving it. I wonder if the difference is that they are hoping Uncle Sam and the rest of us might ride in to bail them out on the short sale houses? Whereas the ones that have already foreclosed they are already stuck with? Anyway, it sounds like the time that has passed gives her an out on the first one (I expect her offer had a timeframe to be accepted), so I think she is safe from having two contracts. She would have to agree to allowing the first one to go forward. In theory it isn't my problem at this point, though practice might work out differently!
Just to be safe, definitely tell the first place she's putting an offer on another house and isn't interested in going through with that one.
2 things could happen. That could make them speed up the process if she wants to still go through with it. Or she'll for sure be covered when she puts in the other offer.
A get together this fall would be cool! It's only a 15 hour drive for me LMAO (I probably would fly down). Keep me posted!
Glad you are doing well.
Enjoy the long weekend!

minimum 3 day drive for me...I can easily fly though! Serious biz! If you plan it, I'll be there!
Jeff, never, ever look at yourself as anything less than the wonderful, kind, caring man you are. You worked so hard to save your M but in the end, it wasn't to be. I've forgiven myself totally for the end of my M, please do the same.
Take care!

(((((WCW))))) You will certainly be told when! Maybe you could come up with a horsey reason to come down here in the fall!
(((((Mishka))))) There would certainly be a place for you.
(((((Kalni))))) If you are serious, figure out when you could make it, and I will figure out the dates around that! I can be pretty flexible. Well, about timing, anyway!
(((((Michelle))))) I hope you can make it down here!
Taxes are done, and sent off into the ether. W's birthday is Friday, the kids and I will meet her after she gets off work for dinner. And the kids want me to get them supplies to make a gingerbread house, she told them she wanted a house for her birthday!
