Selling the Roost

We sold our house!


The house was listed...and we got action immediately.  In fact, I was left with a little bit of emotional whiplash.  I mean, I love my home, but I didn't expect it to go this fast.  We had a written offer within 2 hours of listing our home.  And they hadn't even walked through it yet.

So we sat on the offer for 22 hours. I had to sleep on it.  And I'm glad I did because I realized that this offer was exactly what we were asking for (the buyer requested a quick close...and they seem to LOVE the house).

The house was under contract before I even shared the listing on Facebook (we just wanted to get through the crucial steps, like the inspection and appraisal, before we announced it).  So a little more than a week after listing, and we're already setting a close date for two weeks away.  TWO WEEKS!  Uh... have you noticed it's -15 degrees in Michigan?? 

Justin is currently under the weather with Pneumonia...so I have a bottle of Lysol in one hand and a tape dispenser in the other.  

If you need me, I'll be wrapping my life up in bubble wrap.  And thanks to my very sweet friend, I'll also be sipping on a bottle full glass of wine.
