Well you must read the previous blog about my persnickity buyer. Well, thought I had the problem solved.
Took them out today to see four homes, the second home met all their needs in terms of space, location to work (walking or bike distance), 3 car garage, 2504 sq. feet, beautiful fenced yard that faced West, Olympic Mountain View, Sunsets view, mint condition, lower level accessible for her business, even boat parking (yes we are "buying a home for the boat")!
Made an appointment to write an offer tomorrow. Well, just got the dreaded call "we are in the neighborhood and it's in the flight pattern for the Boeing airport that is just used for testing Boeing jets. All the past several houses they viewed were in the same neighborhood. Mrs. Buyer says "I don't think we are ready to make an offer just yet. We want to come here and sit for several hours and have lunch and see what the noise is like during the day". I quickly reminded her that that particular location (which husband works in!) would have noise from the occasional planes. I also told her that if they bought a million dollar home on the Sound they would have rail road tracks in their back yard!
If they bought on the other side of the freeway, the emissions is too drastic and the noise is too bad.
OK, now my patience is weaning. I think it's time to cut the rip cord and let them loose with someone else.
Mind you I've only been showing since December, every weekend, takes one hour per house to look at.
OK, done, off my soap box and back to work. Need to sell some of my listings and concentrate on my other buyers.
Karen , I can smell the runner from your wheels spinning! Hope they don't bump their heads when the cord is cut!
