I stuck a "for sale by owner" sign in the yard about a week ago. The weather has still been crappy here, but a family came by and looked it over a couple of times and are suppose to stop by after work to sign some papers and give me some earnest money.
So I guess I need to get serious about finding a place to live
. If everything goes thru it should work out perfect for us. My wife has a job till the first part of May, the buyers are wanting to move in the end of May.
We have been either selling, throwing away, or giving stuff away for the last month. We are really trying to get down to only keeping a few things. We are putting everything that we plan to keep into a storage building for now.
Our plan is to rent a place month to month down in Southwest Florida while we look for a place to buy.
I was pretty shocked that the house sold this fast. We are not in a hot market by any means. I was planning on just having the sign out for a few weeks and then list it with a realtor. My wife knows the family, they have always lived in this area, so it looks like it is going to work out good for both of us.
