Well it's been four and a half months, NOW THE CONTRACT IS SIGNED, keep your finger's crossed that all goes well. We will close on October 19th if all goes well and since it's late in the season and getting close to the holidays we will remain in Maryland until December 28th. I will continue to work also until the end of December. The plan then is head to Florida, I made reservations there back in April, I gambled the house would sell, I was starting to sweat it. Gummy

Hey Gummy,
Great news. I checked your blog yesterday and felt bad when I didn't see any news about the house. But no news is now good news. Your plans sound great. Best wishes in your new adventure.

YAY!!! Great news Gummy!!! We certainly know how it feels to have that contract. Yours sold a lot faster than ours. It took us a year and a half and we close on the 25th of October. Still haven't made any concrete plans where we're going for the winter. We weren't expecting to sell but isn't that when things usually happen?

debken, great news for you guys also!!
Froggi, I didn't realize you had a contract on your house!!! Where have I been and how did I miss this good news? Anyway, a belated congratulations to you also.
This is great news, maybe this is a "sign of the times" for our RV Dreams family members with houses to sell. I sure hope so.
GREAT NEWS EVERYBODY!!

Gummy & Froggi,
Congratulations to both of you.
We found the contract period to be very stressful. We were all excited but, not wanting to get our hopes up until it was over and trying to get everything out of the house before the close. Our buyers were wonderful; their only request was that we close by the 21st.
Today we are houseless!!! Transfer of deed has been recorded and the money is in the bank. WHAT A RELIEF!!!

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS, Grant!! I know how stressful that period can be...in my case it all falls back to my buyers, buyers, buyer and her being able to close on the 29th. If she buys house C, then the owner of house C can buy house B and the owner of house B can buy my house! Phew!!
The poor realtor is trying to get all three closings done on the same day...and I won't be here. I'll be arranging for that before I leave....I'll either sign everything before I go or will arrange to be at a spot long enough to get it handled via next-day mail. Just keeping my fingers crossed that all goes as planned!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
I love it when plans come together, what a great feeling. We had a couple of tense moments during our sale when the inspection turned up some things that had to be fixed before the buyer could complete the deal. But our buyer was as anxious to have our house as we were to not have it, so we all hung in there and worked it out.
