19 October 2003Househunting (part 3.5)A mere half an hour before the deadline, the deal foundered, and I said to myself, "Self, do I really want to lose out on this over one lousy percent of the purchase price?" I didn't. They sent me a counteroffer, and I sweetened the deal to the extent requested. Unless I hear otherwise and at this point I don't expect to, inasmuch as I have met their terms I'm going to assume that said deal is done. Congratulations . . now the =real= fun begins! :( Posted by: ms7168 at 1:48 PM on 19 October 2003first a car, then a house... in 2006, you're buying a boat, baby!
