Along the Way…

This evening we went to see this house again:

The owners are asking $204,900 for it and we really liked it! Feeling they were being reasonable, but that we should make a lower offer on principle, we offered $200,000. We can afford to pay the mortgage, but we don’t have a lot of liquid cash right now, so we also asked for the seller to cover our closing costs…

Well, I just got off the phone with our realtor, who called to say they had countered with $204,000 plus agreed to pay up to $8,000 of our closing costs! Because I’m getting a VA loan, that should be plenty to get us into the house, no problem!
