We went back and forth on what our offer should be for quite some time. As I have said in previous posts I would have been willing to accept the $2,000 concession that they had offered, but I wanted more. There were a lot of things to fix.
We decided on $3,000 because that was in the range that they had originally given us for what they wanted to sell the house for and so they should accept it. Although coming ‘up’ to their range did bother the heck out of me: The range that they wanted to “stay in” did not account for all of the problems that were found in the home inspection.
We sent them the new addendum with the $3,000 concession and a closer closing date [this will be another whole blog post to come]. We attached the addendum to an email that said that this was our final addendum.
The sellers responded within 2 hours with a signed addendum and we were in business. We had our final purchase price with concessions and a closing date…. Or so we thought…
[I feel like there should be some mystery plot music playing here--dum dum dum-haha!]
