We sold the house!!!

The low-ball came back after we ignored them and they found out we were going to rent it. So they met our lowest price.

Not making a killing... lost money on the "investment", and don't have enough to put a down payment on a car. However, we're in the black, I don't have to deal with our real estate agent ever again, and we won't have to suck up a mortgage payment (minus rent) every month for another year.

We close tomorrow, but all the contingencies have been met... no reason for it to fall through now.

CONGRATULATIONS iiibbb!!!

What a relief.


PS - Any time you need me to babysit that adorable son of yours, just let me know!!

:-)

What a relief for y'all!

26105. iiibbb - 8/3/2010 8:04:09 PM

You're telling me.

The only spilt milk is we would've sold it twice last year for at least 10K more if there weren't a unfinished home that ran out of money there at the time.

Ahh well. I'll take what I got.

The boy had a great first visit to the ocean last week. Met his 1-month younger cousin and all of his older cousins. In spite of starting off the week with a cold, he had a blast.

Nothin's more fun than cousins when you're a kid.

26108. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 5:43:03 AM

I'm going to try something and if it doesn't work I'll delete:

26109. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 5:43:32 AM

Oooh. Cool, if I say so myself.

26110. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 5:44:11 AM

Wabbit, guess which one of those is posted just for you.

26111. judithathome - 8/4/2010 3:33:24 PM

I love that shot with the tent thingy!!

Beautiful kids! Beautiful wedding!

26112. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 3:38:35 PM

Thanks! They're really great together. Bob and I couldn't be happier. Wish they were coming this weekend, but they won't get home until Sunday.

26113. Jenerator - 8/4/2010 8:43:19 PM

What a true beauty.

26114. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 9:35:54 PM

Thanks! Looking at the pictures of your lovely daughter in Escapes, my first thought was how short a distance in time from there to here. It goes so fast!

26115. wabbit - 8/4/2010 10:19:13 PM

LOL! How is she doing? Say hey for me - for my life I cannot think of her "American" name, but I remember her real name (can't spell it, of course).

I remember you and Diva comparing notes when the girls were in Jr. High. Time sure does fly. The wedding pics are lovely. They really are a great couple.

26116. wabbit - 8/4/2010 10:20:00 PM

iiibbb, congrats on the house sale - must be an enormous relief.

26117. iiibbb - 8/4/2010 10:33:58 PM

It is, but it's getting it's last lick in. After resolving a $1200 savings for myself and my wife, the septic inspector/repair guy found an additional $600 repair, today. I'm not there to question it, get a second opinion or whatever, and I'm sure he knows I'm not going to stop the closing to tell him not to fix it.

Oh well.

It's done.

26118. arkymalarky - 8/4/2010 10:42:37 PM

Angela--doing great. Heading to UNLV this fall. Bob was determined she get a shot at her one big wish for America, and it happened to work since Bob had a connection who knew him and was going to an event when Clinton came down here. But she got to talk to him and everything.

26119. Ms. No - 8/5/2010 12:51:39 AM

Congrats, 3i3b!!


26120. Ms. No - 8/5/2010 12:53:16 AM

Arky, what a beautiful wedding! I love the shot of them on the beach.
