Movin' on Up: Day 3


Well, our first showing has come and gone.  It went really well!  We haven’t heard if the people are interested in purchasing our home, but they had great feedback!  Everything was positive, nothing negative- and that was a wonderful relief!

Up until we left for the showing my belly hurt.  I was really nervous about this viewing.  I told my Mom and sisters that I felt like judgment day was upon me.  I mean, complete strangers were coming into my home and looking to see if they could make it their new home.  That’s a lot of pressure as a homemaker.

I am hoping for the best…that these people saw how great this home is.  I am not trying to get my hopes up.  I’m just going to take it day by day.  I am keeping my fingers crossed!

Mr. and I did go look at a potential home for us- and we loved it!  We are going to put a contingency offer on it.  (This basically means- I will buy your house as soon as I sell mine.)  Hopefully these homeowners will see that we’re serious and take us up on our offer.  The house is awesome, has a lot of potential, and could be our forever home.

That’s where we stand for Day 3 of our house being on the market.  Hopefully I’ll have some exciting news to share within the next few days.  Until then, pray that God’s Will will be done.  We would appreciate it!

Day 3 Advice
Don’t get your hopes up

Be flexible
(Your schedule isn’t going to look normal when you’re trying to sell a house.)

Look for guidance
(Talk to your parents, friends that you trust, or someone who has just bought a home.  These people can see what the house is, since you may have some blinders on.)
