Not five minutes after I posted another blog entry full of frustration, I got a flicker of good news last night.
My real estate agent left a message saying an offer is being written on my old house. However, before they presented the offer the prospective buyers wanted to have an inspection done. The results of that event are now in, and their biggest concern is that the bath tub didn’t drain quickly – so they want a plumber to come in and run a camera down the main sewer line.
Overall, I suspect none of the problems that came out of the inspection are deal breakers if I can compensate the folks through a price reduction. I asked my agent to pass my outlook onto the other agent. We shall see how things pan out after the plumber does his thing on Monday.
