What happened was we looked at a house and by the time we made a decision (an hour or so later) it was sold to someone else. There was no game being played by the realtor.
betchya found another. BTW, your realtor dropped the ball. If you do fall in love with a home your realtor can call to "put a hold on it". I don't know how long they can hold it but it's more than an hour. Not sure if non-Village realtors can do that. When this will get frantic is when/if this place ever hits "buildout". That will be something to experience. Especially if buildout occurs before the boomer wave passes. Then it'll be a whole different ballgame.
