It turns out they really liked the property and house, but had wanted a larger pond for fishing. Our pond is small and not really good for fishing. It is a man made pond and helps with water run off. They haven't ruled us out yet, and are checking on how much it costs to have a larger pond dug. I have no idea, but I do know that a lot of people here in Georgia dig ponds. We just happen to have a very large pasture that would be a perfect place for a pond and very picturesque as well! So we haven't ruled them out.
The Realtor called earlier this afternoon and there is another showing scheduled for Friday morning! Good....we don't have too much time to get the place dirty again and the grass can't grow much in two days! Keep em coming while we're clean!
I have to go and start mowing the pasture. It's due for it's monthly mowing and my "chariot" is ready. Al does about everything he can do to encourage me to mow, so it brings it out and parks it in the shade for me, (just in case :)
Al is working on cleaning the sheds. They weren't involved in the major cleaning yesterday and could use some work. Our garage sales have really helped get rid of a lot of stuff. Having 2 home showing is motivating us!
Wish us luck again!
Congratulations..I hope!!It sounds very promising!

Sounds promising especially with the guy checking out how much digging a pond costs. That wouldn't be my first priority, but who knows!
ReplyDeleteGosh, keeping fingers crossed for you guys! If it does sell fast, you could rent a larger storage room for a month or so to keep all of your things until you figure out what to sell, give away, dispose of and last but not least move into an RV!

ReplyDeleteWe had thought about the storage unit idea as well...IF it sells fast. That's not our first choice but it may be something that has to be considered, even if the house doesn't sell quickly, we will still have a lot of things we have to keep until we do sell it, like lawn mowers, furniture, golf cart...etc. We're trying to think and cover all of our options. Keep the suggestions coming!

It only takes one showing. The right one!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for you!
Reading your last few entries, brought back memories of our 2.5 years are house was on the market. Most of the time we were on the road, so cleaning was not a big issue except when we were in the area and then it was a big pain.
ReplyDeleteWe had over 100 showing in that period and were in in the running so many times. By the time it finally sold, we no longer even thought about those issues. Only offers mattered.
Hope yours goes much faster.
