House number 2, the short sale fixer in the prime location!!!


(DAIRY!)

Are you surprised? Did they pick what you would have picked? Because of the nature of the short sale, they are not yet under contract. Mark and Kristen put in an offer late Friday night and now have to wait for the sellers to accept. Given the holiday weekend, it could be another couple of days. Once the sellers accept, Mark and Kristen will have about 45 days after that to wait for the bank to approve the sale. Then, after all that waiting, assuming everything is approved, a standard 30-day escrow will start with many, many inspections. Although the sale is considered “as is”, that doesn’t mean Kristen and Mark have to accept it as is. Should something deal breaking come up in any of the inspections, they can walk away.

If, and only if, all of the above goes smoothly, the couple will be embarking on budget and calendar busting home improvements. No one can say they don’t seize a challenge! The real question is, who is willing to come help pull weeds and paint?

Find out why we picked what we picked and more on the next episode of House Hunters: Lingwood Edition.

  1. Congrats! This was my second pick - wasn't sure how much updating you guys wanted to do. Hope everything goes smoothly, waiting during drawn out closings can be the hardest part!
