It's official! We are in contract!! It has been a CRAZY weekend. Here are the stats...
Showings: 64
Open House Attendees: 100+
Offers: 19
Sold: $41,000 OVER LIST!!!!
All that happened in 3 days. THREE. DAYS. Here's how it went down.
We had about 35 showings on Friday. 5 or 6 at a time. We had to be out of the house from 9:30am until 8:30pm. We spent a lot of the day and the whole evening bunking at Suzanne's. She is a magical unicorn of goodness and light and I can never repay her. She even let Flip on the furniture!
Wm, too, was allowed to make himself right at home:
After we got home, we basically crashed. But then we had to wake up on Saturday, to about 20 showings. These went from 9:30am-6:30pm. Even though she wasn't at home most of the day, Suzanne let us squat at her place the whole time! Wm and Flip continued to make themselves at home:
THEN, after they were gone all day, Suzanne and Graham got home and cooked us dinner!! YES. They cooked us dinner on top of everything! Magic unicorn.
After we got home Saturday, we watched a movie and immediately went to bed. Sunday, we had to do lots of re-cleaning and sprucing for the open house. Our realtor said, at one point, she had to tell people that the house was full and no one else could come in! So there was a line out the door, down the walk, and onto the sidewalk of people waiting to get into the house!
While all this was going on, we took Flip to the park while we had a picnic lunch. Then, we took him to the actual dog park, where he got to run around like a maniac. After that, we took a walk around our new neighborhood to kill some time. When we tried to come home, there were lingerers!! So we had to make an emergency pit stop at Mimi and Guy's. When we FINALLY got home, they were STILL there! So I told Steve to take a loop around the block and then I was kicking them out. Luckily, they were gone after that!
And now we are the most exhausted people ever. And also the happiest! This was so far above our expectations that it's crazy!!! We are THRILLED. If anyone needs a real estate agent, ours pretty much kicked ass!! In our dreams, we hoped for $15k over list. We spoke of it in whispers. It was The Number That Shall Not Be Named. But to go for $41k over list is AMAZING!!!!! I don't think we're going to be able to sleep tonight from excitement! Or maybe we will...
