No Contingencies

We're just back from our trip to the remote North. The reality of our speedy house sale is starting to sink in.

The buyer's home inspection was yesterday afternoon. Early last evening, we got a ring and a voice mail from our realtor. Once more, we drove five miles into town, this time petrified that something had gone horribly wrong with the inspection. As soon as we had cel service, we dialed her up. We held our collective breaths as she began to speak.

"Well, the house inspection was this afternoon," she started in a very calm tone. "And, Good News! No issues were found."

We once again let oxygen return to our bloodstreams as she went on to explain that the buyer removed the inspection contingency, and with that, no contingencies remain. That's it! This deal is just waiting for our closing date.

When we pulled up to the house a bit ago, we saw more evidence that we really did sell our house. The "for sale" sign now says "sale pending". And, the lock box we never saw is gone. Surreal!

Thank you so much, dear readers, for your congratulations and good wishes. We really appreciate them. We are sending all the quick selling good deal mojo we can to all of our cyber friends who have or will soon put their houses on the market. Our very best wishes for success like this to you all.

We look forward to meeting you on the road soon.

But first, we have a whole lotta stuff to do.
