You know what they say. When you least expect it and stop worrying about things, it happens. Been there many times. I put my house up for sale in Michigan. It was gorgeous on a large lake with views and lots of extras. At first I was excited. Got some viewings and was fun to read their comments. Some were it didn't have room for horses! Some didn;t like a room. One wanted a theater room NOT where it was at! Just excuses. The realtor, and people all said the house was perfect, but still nothing for a few months. Than I said forget it. Was happy there for a while. The realtor was shocked when I turned down over 20 requests to show it. Showed it 36 other times. He was perplexed and told him in time. I just "didn't like the people" Tire kickers. He was patient. He kept in on the market but reduced the "listings on line and paper". Assume to save him money.
Finally someone came along in MID-Winter! Who would have guessed! I said ok to let them see it. I was going away anyway. they looked, looked the next day, and bought it for almost not much less than i was asking.
So one never knows. I know all are impatient to get here.
