canadiandiamondSo, today it was finalized, at least with the haggling: we came to an agreed upon amendment to the price of the house. The inspection on Monday found a bunch of things that needed work, a lot of them relatively minor - it is the inspector's job to point out everything, no matter how big or small - and a few big things that had to be addressed. At first the vendors were being stubborn and insisted they wouldn't go below what they'd offered, which wouldn't even cover the materials needed, but we managed to get them to a more reasonable figure today. I was a little worried; the agent said yesterday when she called with the vendors' position that they would not bend from it, and when I called the agent today (we had someone else look at the place today re: part of what needed to be done and got an estimate) with our numbers, she was pretty sure they'd reject what I asked instead. However, she called back a few hours later and they accepted our position, so yay! Like I told her, I'm not trying to rip them off or to be an idiot, but I can't buy a house for a nice amount like that and then turn around and spend thousands more on repairs that should've been either done beforehand or adjusted for, so that was that. And it worked out ok. :)
All that's left now is to meet the broker again tomorrow to finalize that side of things, and then it's just a waiting game. Pretty exciting stuff, omg. :D And speaking of exciting, only 3 more sleeps until my trip to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
believeitup! I have a trial in the morning, so off to bed as soon as I type this up, and then the afternoon free to catch up on paperwork, then it's off to the city tomorrow night for court on Thursday morning in there, then back out for a short matter in court in Hr. Grace, then aaaaaaaall the way back to the city for Thursday night since my Friday a.m. flight is at 6:25am, very early indeed. I'm very excited, though, it's almost here! Going to be such a nice break, and well-deserved, too, if I do say so myself, heh. I've been feeling more overworked lately than I did before Christmas even, and this time Sara actually gets a nice bit of time off, well-deserved by her I might add, and we get to go back to Boston. So perfect for what's almost our first anniversary, I think. :)
Alright, off to bed with me, to dream of my impending travel. :D :D :D
