Here, now three days after listing we get an acceptable offer and have another that has looked at the house a total of 4 or 5 times already. Might we have a bidding war in the making?  BTW, if anyone wants to see the house we're selling's listing, PM me and I'll provide you with the web address. (no need to make an offer first)

No bidding war. Other viewer low-offered us considerably! BUT.....
   Day 1: 10/27/11 - House listed on the market for sale. Day 3: 10/30/11 - Offer made! Day 4: 10/31/11 - Bank pre-approval received, offer accepted & executed. Can't happen much better than that... pending successful inspections and final bank approval of course! Now we'll be able to apply for our full Froggie Certifications! Forgot to mention: Hope some of this luck here rubs off on those waiting to sell so you can join us here soon... REAL SOON!

Another thank you (not) to our Federal Government
Our good luck took a rapid about face thanks to our property being declared by FEMA to be in a flood zone, and our house has never even come close to any flooding or had more than a few inches of standing water in our basement from storm drain backup when there has been nearby flooding. Go figure! And this is just one of a number of negative situations we've experienced lately where the cause can be traced back to various actions by our federal government.
It also figures that our buyers found out about this new decleration before we did, and when they found out that flood insurance (required by the bank) would cost something like $4500 per year, they backed out of the contract. Next week we're having an engineer do an elevation study at an additional expense of $500 as that may result in a signifant reduction in the flood insurance cost, possibly to under $900 anually, and if that can happen then we have a much better chance of selling with the taxes being pretty low at out location. If we're really lucky we might find a cash buyer and insurance won't be necessary. In the mean it's back to square one!
