Search saga: I’ve put a total of three offers on three abodes. The first two I lowballed and got kicked out of the running by people willing to pay top dollar. This third offer is a little more special. It’s not near the train tracks, and it’s only 10 minutes away from work. But it’s ...maybe dead, maybe still breathing. It’s like a dating scenario, where the dates went well, had a several very nice moments and the potential for something more is in the air. The gentleman says, “I’ll call you.” …and then nothing. for three days. The sellers aren’t even getting in touch with their agent to give him an answer. So my guess is: no deal. And the search goes on.
Here’s a picture of the house on which I’ve made the offer:
Even though I know it most likely won’t be in my future, I still look at the picture and imagine the possibilities. Kinda like dating.

It is a lovely home. I hope it works out, but if not, I hope you get something even better.
I fully understand the frustration of selling. We sold our ranch last fall. We co-owned the ranch with my parents and both families lived on it. So, it had 43 acres of mandarins and two homes on it. This was not easy to sell, since it was not only two homes, but also the mandarin acreage. It took forever!!!!
I wish you success with selling and buying. I hope you find the home of your dreams!
thanks, jamie. you have a good cyber heart and i'm sure you're just as nice in person, too :)
mck.
I expect an EXCITING, COLORFUL, HIGHLY ENERGETIC post out of you when that house finally sells. Deal?
yes, ma'am.
I'm totally addicted to the real estate section. I troll on the internet for listings like guys look at porn!
i'm oddly fascinated with HGTV interior design shows and 'design to sell' and 'house hunters'...
if only my wallet matched my exquisite taste and fashion sense.
