So, My Lady and I are buying a house.
Trust me, we are surprised as to how quickly it happened, too!
ML and I have been “window shopping” for houses for a little while, fantasizing about setting up our own little playroom in an extra bedroom. But we weren’t getting all that deep into it just yet. We were eyeing a house here and there, but there weren’t many that were all that interesting… and the ones that were kept getting sold before we could even go and see them!
And so it went until yesterday, when we lined up a few houses to go see with our real estate agent. The first two were nothing special, but the last one we saw had that “feeling” to it – I remember standing in the kitchen and thinking to myself, “Yeah, I could totally live here.” On the way back home, ML and I decided to put an offer in on the house.
ML called our agent when we got in the door; she had bad news – the sellers had gotten an offer that morning and had already sent out a counter offer! I mean, seriously… does everyone just automatically want what we want?
So, missed out again, right?
Oh no… not this time.
ML and I decided that we wanted this house. So we said, “screw that ‘counter offer’ noise, we’re buying this house.” We called the real estate agent back and told her to put in an offer – hey, if it ain’t sold yet, it ain’t sold!
We knew it was a race against time – if the other buyer accepted the counter offer, it didn’t matter if we offered the moon. We weren’t going to get into a bidding war, however – if they countered our offer, we were ready to walk away. So we put our offer in, and waited…
… we waited about five minutes before we got a call back.
Offer accepted!
That wasn’t the only deal that went down yesterday: during our celebratory sex, I really wanted to cum. So ML said she’d allow me to, but my next orgasm would have to be in our new house. Of course, I took the deal.
According to our signed offer, closing is in 60 days…
Congratulations!! Welcome to the world of homeowners. It’s a lot of work but can be very rewarding. Btw the 60 days will go quickly! lol
Thanks so much… Still need everything to go smoothly with inspections and funding and all that but it will be nice to own or own home again. It’s been crazy moving around the past couple years… Settling down is going to feel nice! đŸ™‚
It’s easier to yodel during sex when you have a single family home!
Hahaha
