Request for Pixie Dust, please - Update 2 on Page 2

[QueenTrident]

DH and I could use a lot of pixie dust right now. We just put a bid on our dream house. Problem is the full price is too expensive for us (or would make things really, really tight), so we put in a bid 2.5% less than asking. I really, really want this house. It will be perfect for me after I have my baby because I plan to start a home business and the den/playroom situation is awesome.

I know there will be othe houses, but this is the fourth house we've bid on (and the absolute best) and I'm running out of time to move comfortably before the baby is born!

Extra Potent Pixie dust sent your way! (This is my 100th post), and I believe it makes the PD 100% stronger. Good Luck!

Haven't heard anything yet - still keeping my fingers crossed. We did do the math and from what we bid to their asking price is only about $80 more a month - so if we cut out extended cable for a while or make a larger down payment on the house, we can probably swing it.

Our other concern is that we can't close until November 15. Since that is more than 60 days away, we're afraid the owners will want to move sooner. I just hope they respond to our bid so we can at least negotiate!

I hate waiting for the phone to ring.

Woo Hoo! Just heard back (at 10:15 PM EDT - I had given up hope tonight). They like our offer and countered at at good amount under their asking price, really splitting the difference between our bid and their asking price. But, still above what we had decided two nights ago would be our top price. DH wants to counter for less, but I think we should let it go - it's about $20 a month in mortgage payments. We're going to sleep on it.

I'm so excited. The house is brand new, so we don't have to worry about inspection. Now, we just need to make it through the inspection on our home - it's 20+ and we had the house fire last year. I'll probably be asking for more pixie dust in the days ahead.

Thanks so much for all the pixie dust and prayers. I now believe in the Power of the DIS!

FWIW, pay the extra $20.00 a month, this is your DREAM HOUSE!

Enjoy!

Okay, we are under contract on the house! We agreed to their counter offer and that ws that! I'm so excited. It's going to be tough for a bit, but we can do it just by cutting out some of the non-essentials. Thanks again to all for your pixie dust! It really worked!
