Sold, and sold.


Adobe Ct, VB
The auction in VB (see prior post,) for Adobe Ct. went well. We got a buyer under contract and made the margin that we needed to, so everyone is happy. We're waiting on the appraisal, but inspections have been done and the buyer is FHA approved so it looks like we'll be able to get funding and take it to closing in about 10 more days. Whew!

Jeanne St, VB
Jeanne St FINALLY closed as well. I originally got this property under contract back in MAY 2008! It was a probate property and I started working with the heirs back in Oct 07. It took them months to all decide on a.)Whether or not to sell the house at all, b.) Upon deciding to sell, they bickered about the price to sell, c.) One of the heirs got thrown in jail so they waited until he got out 2 months later to sign the contract.

Once under contract we had title issues, leins and judgments for each of the heirs. One of the heirs had just been released from bankruptcy so we had a couple issues to deal with there as well. As time wound along, another of the heirs STARTED bankruptcy, so her portion of the estate got wrapped up and we couldn't move forward with the closing until the judge had time to review the case. Aarrrgh! So, 6months after signing the contract with the heirs, I finally saw some $$ come my way. At least it's done.
