Thanks!prfsnl_gmr wrote:Nice work! I heard that Denver is a great place to sell a home, and although you may be second-guessing your asking price, I think that the peace of mind you get from selling it probably outweighs any amount extra that you would have received by holding out.
Yeah, Denver is definitely in the middle of a boom right now. Great if you're selling, much tougher if you're buying. Like I said above, some houses I've looked at in the past couple of weeks and been interested in buying went under contract before I even got a sniff. Its crazy.
On the plus side though, going under contract here will make things smoother for me on the buying end. I was concerned about making offers of my own that were contingent on selling my place. No longer an issue. So you're right, it really is a load off my mind in many ways.
Another nice thing is that I'm very happy with my asking price. This house was bank owned when I bought it, and at the time the market was still recovering from having tanked. To put it plainly, I got a screaming deal, so at the price I'm selling at I'm coming out smelling like a rose. Its all just fortunate timing when you get down to it, but I'm not complaining.
On that note, we probably could have gone higher, but as you said, its (all but) sold with no trouble, and I have peace. This couldn't have possibly gone better.
My kid decided to stay up late again, which is partly my fault, but his means I can't sleep in tomorrow. 
She is dressing herself kinda, and put her shoes on and went to the door saying "Bye Bye Daddy?". Jinx left for work about an hour ago, and she wants to go see him.
