So I mentioned in another thread that we accepted an offer on our house. The buyers were prequalified but they wanted a longer than usual escrow. They didn't have to sell their current house to buy ours but wanted to give it some time just in case. Well when they turned in their paperwork to the lender they had to give them their 2013 tax papers and not the 2012 ones. They made more in 2012 and in turn did not get the loan. Also they didn't do the paperwork till after the opt out period expired. So that deal is a bust. Two weeks completely wasted.
There was another interested buyer that was going to put in an offer but we had already accepted one so our agent contacted them. They were still interested so they brought the whole clan to see the house before they put in an offer. We met our agent Friday late afternoon and although I had an off feeling (was worried they wouldn't qualify or something else would happen) we accepted the offer. Our agent called this morning to tell us that she emailed the lender that there's an accepted offer and whatnot and the lender replied that the buyer didn't qualify after all.
Over the weekend we had another couple look at the house. They are from around here and know people on our street already. They liked the house. Let's hope we get another offer.
Wow what a soap opera this has become.
