We are SO not going to get this house...

...but we figured we'd try and put a bid in anyway. It's got a nice, open floor plan and huge windows on the side and back, overlooking the private courtyard and the pool. Fingers crossed.

That house was just renovated last year and was on the market for a...lot...more...then I thought you were willing to pay.

That is the house 'round the corner from "Billy O."'s right?

Marie's old house was in your price range and has a bomb shelter.

I like all the windows but certainly hope they are double payne and Low-e.

What's the asking price?

This isn't the house near Billy O's. This one is down by TGIF's off Flamingo & Spencer. They're asking $440,000, but we bid less than that (and therefore probably won't get it). It's 4 bdrm, 3 baths, 2800 sq. ft. on a quarter acre lot.

ooh, I like the sound of this house. It's also one story.

I want it!

WOW! It looks like one near B.O's house that was going for 600,000+ a little over a year ago. I concur w/ Brad, this house is swank-a-licious.

It's a 2-story - not sure why it looks like a one-story from the outside. The bedrroms and 2 baths are upstairs. It has a built-in wall toaster in the kitchen and a wet bar under the stairs. It's crazy.

We offered $420. They just counter-offered for $425. We are totally stressing out. Stupid bastard-heads.

it looks cute!! your leaving henderson??? I am sad :(

Bradley said...

Just imagine if you offered $400.. They would have counter offered for $405 and you'd have your house. What a bitch!

who told you to offer $420?

Cladeedah said...

They rejected the last offer for $409 and that person was submitting another offer, so we were trying to beat them to it. We accepted the $425k counteroffer, so, if all the inspections and everything go well, we should have a house in 15 days.

I may have a suggestion on an inspector. He's a plaintiff's witness for construction defect/mold/the whole nine yards, as well as an inspector.
