Wow. That was really embarrassing.
Really…..embarrassing. I wasn’t expecting that at all.
I went to sleep for a few hours around 5:30am this morning, hoping to sleep about 4 hours, and then start the week off in the office. Around 8 though I’m awakened by footsteps outside the back of my deck.
I look out, and someone is walking around. Great, I think, and head back to a few more minutes of sleep. Then I see my real estate agent calling on my phone. Crap.
I pickup. “Hey, is the lockbox still outside?”
Me, “No, I took it in a month ago when you told me too”
Agent, “Well, the buyer is there to do an inspection, are you at the house?”
“Yes, give me 2 minutes, I’ll let them in”
I go downstairs….there ARE FOUR CARS IN MY DRIVEWAY! I crap you not, four cars, at least 5 five people waiting outside my house. I through on some close, someone rings the doorbell…
“I’ll be right there!” (I yell…not in a mean way, just a frustrated way)
I gather up my stuff. I’m double blocked in, two people move their cars….this is so not cool.
4 cars. 5 people.
I leave as fast as I can. This was not fun. I guess this is what happens when you do stupid stuff…hope the inspection goes well. Wish I had had a heads up on that happening! (Agent! What’s going on here? A simple e-mail anytime yesterday would have been nice…)
Alright, enough writing. I’m pissed off and I have a priority list of 15 things to get done today….
#1 get un pissed off….

go with the flow. someone’s willing to play ball. they might not have the same driving habits as you, but their money might be green. tell your agent about notification again and ultimately just blow this off because you’re probably not changing agents at this point.
p.s. your last two posts (graphics and bullet items) were kinda cool. pretty soon, mark my words, your enormous debt will float along like a gruesome but docile Macy’s Day (or Pink Floyd) balloon pig over Broadway. You continue performing on key hurdles.
To the gruesome but tameable flying pig called endebtedness!
Well, somebody paid the inspector, so it looks like the buyer is serious. This is good news, I suppose.
Yes, it is good news. I just needed to get over my embarrassment. The buyers real estate agent left his card, so I’m assuming they are still interested at the new price.
That is good news. Once the house debt is taken care of (granted I will have to deal with the tax issues from the sale), it will be one less item on my spreadsheet…
