Well, we heard back from the bank yesterday: they rejected our offer. I suppose on some level, we expected that simply because they really haven't budged from their intial listing price. Oh, well. We are trusting God that He has the perfect house out there, and in His time, we will find it. Some consolation for us was that both our realtor and their realtor agreed that we should NOT bid any higher than where we were because theouse is not worth that. Don't get me wrong, it's a TLC-er, but it's not in disrepair. Some new flooring, cleaning, and painting would have made that a beautiful home. Anyway, Tim, our realtor, was telling us the listing agent gave her initial appraisal to the owning bank. They tried to get her to raise her appraisal, which was around what we bid. Whatever! God knows, and we know we submitted the right offers, so now we back away and wait for the RIGHT house to pop up. Thank you for your continued prayers.
Today is Mike's day off, so we are anticipating a fun-filled "US" day. I live for Friday! The sad part is it's usually the day I get the most done because the girls are playing with Mike so I am free to clean and fold and well, whatever! :)
