And Then There Were Two

This weekend we received a call from our broker letting us know that there is a competing buyer who is also interested in the property we placed our offer for. This second buyer was to offer more money than us, and was giving the seller a 24 hour time frame in which to accept their offer. Therefore, if we wanted to compete, we needed to submit a signed executed contract, with addendum, accompanied by a check made out to the title company, to help show the sellers how serious we are. We also had to up our offer. You might think that all this would be easy, if not for the fact that we moved this weekend. All 100 boxes. With three cats. Not easy. Not fun. But, at the very least, the ball is now in the sellers' court. We wait and see.
