Congrats!!!

I know EXACTLY how you feel!!! We are closing our first house in 3 weeks!!! When we were in the offer stage we were up against another couple too. We had to go 3k above the asking price in order to get it but it was the PERFECT house for us...and when you think about it...3k over 25 yrs is not that much more money...if it's the house you really want!

Good Luck!!!

If you get it would you have to move before the wedding?
We would probably move before the wedding. Maybe not fully move in tho. It does need some work that will be easier to do if all of our stuff isn't there yet. So, I'd probably try to tackle some projects before the wedding so we could move in after. We don't live together right now tho so we'll be coming home to separate houses! (which I don't like at all)

They have a week to get back to us. We actually expect that they are going to say no to this offer. We went in pretty low, but the house has been on the market for over 200 days with no activity and the other offer requires that the people sell their house before they can buy this one. We don't have anything to sell, have a pre-approval and cash to put down. We're hoping they come back with a counter-offer and see where it goes from there. If they take our first offer then they are really desperate. When I say low, I mean we went in REALLY low. lol
