Default Finally,Our house is sold

Well, we did it and now we will be heading to The Villages. It took a while but, the end (and the lowered price) will justify the means. We can not wait untill we can start our new lives at "Americas Favorite Home Town"

Everything happened so fast that we forgot that we have to have a place to live until we decide what we want to buy. So, we have decided to rent for awhile just to let the dust settle.

If any of you have, or know of anyone that would have a home for rent for 6/12 months. Please have them contact us with a private email. Any help would be most appreciated.

Hope to see you all at Crispers. Thanks in advance,

beartrack

Congratulations on the sale of your home and welcome to Paradise. I am so happy for you and I am sure you won't believe how wonderful it is to live here full time.

Me and Sweetie and Helene are now 6 month owners and will return for a long spell the first week of January. We are thinking all of the time about making it our permanent home.

Bear I am so happy for you and jealous at the same time. Maybe I will be the next one to post that my house has sold.

Congratulations on the next phase of your adventure called Life.

Congratulations and we are also jealous. Just this week again, we were the bridesmaid and not the bride - they chose the townhome instead of our house - what was wrong with those buyers. Anyway we are excited that you are making it to TV. Have fun shopping for your new home.

Terrific news Beartrack. Congratulations. Seems like in the past couple of weeks quite a few people have managed to get contracts on their homes. I'm taking that as a good sign and hoping that we follow in your footsteps very soon. And Mikark, its fine with me if you are the next one to post that your house has sold, just so long as I can be the one after you..lol

I do find it amazing that so many contracts have been signed in the couple of weeks before the holidays. I was under the impression that things got terribly slow at this time of year.

When our Realtor asked me if I wouldnt prefer just waiting to list our home until after the Holidays, I said NO!! Today will be fine with me Holidays or no holidays, you just never know!

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SALE !!

WTG Bear,

Lets see - nONIE, Scottke, Mikark, Donna, & myself are awaiting action. ANY action will suit me. We're all trying to sell. And I'm sure I missed several. GET ME/US A CONTRACT!!!

Well, you can subtract us from the "under contract" crew and put us back into the group searching for a buyer. While we had emerged from attorney review relatively painlessly and were thus "under contract", our buyers got cold feet and now want out of the contract. We are still putting up a nominal fight hoping that they get over their fear of the economy but our attorney says if people really want out, they'll get out and fighting them only makes the attorneys rich.

Congrats to those who have sold and good luck to those of us still trying.

Thanks. Yes, this has been quite a low for us after getting mentally prepared to make the move in January.

Make it a scotch, single malt, straight up. Leave the bottle.
