Things happen for a reason. We truly believe that if we’re meant to do something, it will come to us easily and without struggle. So, we made our offer on the house, and it was met with a ridiculously high counter offer. We hadn’t had a good feel for the seller’s realtor from the beginning, so we decided to let it go and not make a higher offer. He had informed us that there was another couple interested in making an offer, and we were not interested in a bidding war, so we said Thanks but no thanks. Our own realtor called us yesterday to say that the seller’s realtor wanted to know why we weren’t countering, and that there was indeed no other couple interested. Funny. So the hunt continues for the perfect house that sings to us and calls for us to make it our home. We shall see. We shall breathe.
Much love to all!
