I just went through this about 4 months ago! I know how hard it is to wait. I hope you get better results than I did! I'm still in my apartment.
Please let us know when you DO GET the condo! You'll have to tell us all about it! How many units in the building, if it has a balcony, if your on the top floor, middle floor, what the lay out is, what City it's in, etc.
I hope you get an answer soon, hon...Good idea to go work out! When I was waiting I started cooking...chopping with a knife was a great way to take my mind off of it...or to at least try!
But then again, you may not want to leave the phone. Is Shane at home to take the call? Do you have a cell phone? Can you get calls while your on the internet?
Hey, what time is it in Seattle anyways? It's already 11:30 in Chicago.

They counter offered.... they will not pay the closing costs.... that would be another $6,000 + we ended up already going in at asking price that were not going to do originally. So we just might be walking....  We have until 5pm on Tues (7/5/05) to respond.
We are going to look at another place with our Agent either later tonight or tomorrow that was new on the market Saturday... there are no pics available yet... but we know where the building is, not too far from this one we put the offer in on.
I'll keep you guys posted....

I'm sorry things are working out like you had hoped, but if it makes you feel any better, we've bought (and sold) lots of houses and we've always had a counter-offer---and we've never had anyone pay the closing costs! Is that normal for your area? A lot of it depends on supply and demand.
One of the most important things you can do when house/condo shopping is have a great (EXPERIENCED) realtor, especially when all of this is new to you! We've had good and bad realtors---and that really makes a difference. It's important that they are familiar with the area you're looking at, or you could end up making a huge mistake with your offer.
I know this is a stressful time for you. Something will work out! Hang in there! I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Shell, can't you add the closing costs to the mortgage? I meanif you really want this place, that may be an alternate way of getting it. $6000 over 15 years or even 30 years is not that much. Jst a htought. I know EXACTLY how you feel. I know it is a stressful time. Good luck with everything.
