Real Estate Run-Down

Over the weekend, we looked at six more condos - bringing our total viewings to somewhere around forty or fifty. We put an offer on another one today, but I have no confidence that anything positive will happen. It seems as if every time we display an interest in a unit, even if it has sat empty for a year or more, someone else decides to outbid us.

If the single-family-housing market was as booming as the local condo market we would be all set. We have had more showings of our house this past week, but still no offers. On Sunday afternoon, our realtor called us at 1:57 p.m. asking if an agent could bring a client through at 2:00 p.m. Since Jim is home this week, he is getting a glimpse of what our lives have been like for the past three months, having to tidy up and rush out of the house at a moment's notice. I hope it all pays off for us.

Later this week our movers are coming over, first to pack our stuff, and then to load everything onto the moving van for the trip to Texas. I will be spending the next few days frantically sorting, organizing, and labeling Michigan things vs. Texas things.
