It's official. The house goes on the market today!
The agent and I agreed to list it at $115k. Good middle ground. After all fees and such, that would let me walk away with about $27k, if anyone agrees to the asking price. I was hoping for at least $20k, so that leaves a little wiggle room.
The market is apparently moving pretty fast right now, so to close sounds like it could take less than a month. (Not counting on it too much but hoping.)
It was an odd thing. When I filled out the form on Zillow, I was getting antsy because I had not received a response for a while. I had started looking at other agents to contact. Then the agent my house got handed to was the same person I was considering. Intuition kicking in. I have a good feeling about her. Honestly, I'm happy to have a female agent.
In contrast to the guy from last week, she had a lot of compliments about the house. While I did correct a few things since last week, it wasn't all that much. I did not have a good vibe from him.
So, now it's a matter of waiting. She said it's better if I am not home when people come to see the house, so she will let me know before showing the house. Told her I only need 30 minutes warning. Just to be sure things are clean and put away.
Damn. That means I have to make the bed daily. I hate that. lol!
