My heart is aching right now. The real estate business is definitely not for me. You have no control over anything. You just have to wait. Its like the last stretch of being pregnant and you play the waiting game to see when you go into labor. You have no control or say when that baby is ready come. The plus to labor is that the baby will come, it can't stay inside forever. Will our house ever sell? It has to! What other option do we have? I know it will, but its very hard on me. As I type I just have tears streaming down my face. I don't understand! Of course, to some extent I am bias about our house in Noosack. I think its by far the best house on Jackson Court. Especially, out of the house's that are for sale. People are just not wanting to make an offer.
Our realtor informed us of many things today. Its definitely a strange market right now. The couple that I posted earlier about that had contacted a friend of ours about home insurance is not at this point going to offer on our home. They plan to offer on the one like ours across the street. So our realtor asked why that house over ours and they said b/c its a little bit bigger. So our realtor went to do some measuring of his own. The only difference is the kitchen/dining area is 18in. wider than our house! They haven't made an offer yet, so maybe they will change their mind and offer on ours. Maybe they won't be able to agree on a contract with the builder. Its still frustrating! Then an older lady from Sumas was once interested in ours, but her grandaughter thought the 2 extra rooms in ours were too small. So she is now making a low ball offer on a house in Everson. I guess that is what she does. She has all the money, but doesn't really want to pay for anything. Which, we probably don't want an offer from her! Then the couple that have looked at our place 4 times, their realtor can't get a hold of them. Its like they don't even exist anymore. Then the couple that was friends of our realtor, had liked our house the best, has now decided to stay in Eastern Wash. and he is going to be a stay at home Dad.
This is the crazy one, our realtor had another house listed and had a contract on it. An easy great contact, it came time to close and the buyers are nowhere to be found. The buyer's realtor even went to their home and everything was packed up and gone! So how bazaar is that? So we will just continue to wait so more!
Please, pray for me and all of us! Not that Byron isn't concerned, but I don't think that men carry the same worries as us women. Its truly wearing on me! So please pray for strength and peace.
