under contract

Wow - I had an offer on my house yesterday. I counter-offered, and now my house is under contract. It had been on the market approximately 11 days (depends when you start counting). The offer is for a little less than what I paid for the house ... but if everything works out, it will resolve a huge worry. Not to mention free up my equity so I can pretend I might buy a lean-to in California. The closing date is March 21; if the contract falls through for some reason, I haven't missed much of the prime time for moving real estate. Woot woot!

Is my realtor great, or what?

Now, I did leave the listing open for backup offers, meaning I still should live in the furniture showroom in case someone wants to look. However, the likelihood of buyers coming through is vastly reduced.
