Asking Price

Our house has been on the market for five days. Today, we received an offer to buy the house at our asking price. While that would have been about right in the real estate market The Wife and I left behind in California two years ago, it is a phenomenally fast turnaround time for Knoxville.

There are a few details to iron out, like how much of the closing costs we will pay, when the closing takes place, and so on. But seeing as the asking price is more than seven thousand dollars over what we paid for the house six months ago, we’ve got no cause to complain at all.

At this rate, we’ll be back in California in mid-June, somewhat ahead of our projected schedule. That’s pretty cool.
