OMG, it's almost over!!!!
Jun. 15th, 2021 09:54 amI've found a buyer for the house!!!!!
I don't know if I wrote about it, but the renter is moving out July 1st. So I immediately called the bank to see if they had any advice for me....I always felt I was under water and didn't want to put ANY money into it myself, needing SO much work. They suggested I try to sell it again and to call a specific realtor who was also a house flipper. He came to look at it two weekends ago.
We had set up an appointment yesterday morning and he showed me comps if I wanted to list it. I told him my whole history with the house. He asked, "in your perfect world, what do YOU see"? Of course, I started crying.....but this house has been SO stressful for me ever since asshole left. The leak. The village grant. The work done to list it 3 yrs ago. The non-sale. The knowing I don't have it in me to do it again....and I told him that. He made an offer of 54,000. With the mortgage, the grant, the closing costs, I owe 57,500.
I had already called my banker about the potential for a home equity line of credit for the off chance I needed to make up the difference between whatever offer and my total. And he's sending me an app to have on the ready when cash is needed. SO, now we wait.....wait for final numbers and closing dates and more info. And then wait to figure out whether we roll Jeremy's stuff (4 wheeler and lawn mower) into this, or if I adopt them to bang out like I have everything else.
I don't know. But I came home and slept like I had years of stress lifted from me. And I still can't believe it.
