I've been looking on and off for the past few years for a house. Wasn't in any big hurry to move out. I found a house right next to work, checked it out. They wanted over 200K at that time so that was a no go. They later dropped it to 199,900 which was still over my budget. They did some work around the property and re-listed again at 154,900. I did a second look at the place and my parents decided they would help me out with the down payment and all that which helped a bunch. I was approved for 125,000 so after taking a second look we decided to get it inspected and if that went ok put in an offer. Home inspection went pretty good it needs a new roof, gets water in the basement which was things we already knew so no surprise. Basically most of the stuff that was pointed out was stuff we knew. We decided to kinda low ball at 110k. The money will be going straight to a nursing home so not like they are getting anything out of the deal.
Fast forward to today I get a call little after 2 saying they countered at 115k LOL
So I gotta go sign some more papers tomorrow and hopefully will be in by the end of next month.
It's a sorta 5 BR (only 1 room actually has a closet and according to my mom it's not a BR without a closet) 1 bath. with a 2 car garage on 1.20 acres. I'll post some pics later or when I actually get in do a video tour
