We got notice on Sunday morning (Sept 20) that there was someone very interested in buying our house and we might receive an offer that evening. At about 8:30 p.m. our realtor called and said they had indeed received an offer on the house but it was very low and did we want to counter. We did counter and went to bed elated that someone had actually made an offer on the house. The next morning I got a call and our realtor said that she had received a counter on our counter and did we want to accept it. Their counter offer was acceptable, so now our house was under contract our closing date was set and we didn't have a house to buy. So we went into emergency house hunting mode.
By Wednesday (Sept 23) we had come up with 2 houses that we liked (I had already seen quite a few that were still listed and they weren't suitable for our needs) and that we hadn't seen. Based on what we'd seen on the internet, we were fairly certain that we preferred 1 over the other and that was probably the house that we were going to make an offer on. We saw the first house and thought it was a good back-up if the other one didn't work. Well, the other one didn't work AT ALL. It was too small and poorly laid out. So we made an offer on the first one at about 2:30 p.m.(that we really did like and it had everything that we were looking for). By 5:30 we knew that our offer had been accepted and we were now under contract!
So, here is a picture of our new house! (We close on both houses October 27th) If you wish to Google Earth or Bing Live View it, the address is 2123 Circle Dr, Carlisle PA.
