SOLD!

Yeah! We sold our house this morning!!!!!! I am soooooo excited. The people that bought it are a very young married couple that live in Iowa City right now. The guy is an industrial engineer and works in Muscatine (We assume for Hon) So I hope he plans on getting a job in Cedar Rapids or that would be a killer commute! Anyway I am just so happy that they are young and don't have to sell a house of their own first. They were pre-approved for a loan and included that info with their offer. It really couldn't be a better setup for us. They basically offered us asking price but we agreed to cover their closing costs and a one year home warranty. I guess the young people don't have good nest eggs these days but can make monthly payments so they need the help coming up with the chunk of money for the closing. It is worth it to me to not have to worry about it anymore and not to have to have the house in perfect condition every day by 9:00AM. We will have to have an inspector come in the next couple of weeks, so we are praying that goes well! The other aspect is that we agreed to a July 11th close. We assume that if they are in an apartment in IA City that the lease is up July 30th so we would have to move out then anyway. We aren't sure if we want to go to an apartment or try to get along with mom and dad for a month or so. More on that later. Thanks to all that were praying and hoping for a fast sell. I think it worked!!! I will be sleeping very well tonight and enjoying my mother's day open house free!!!!! Love ya, Em
