Sale Agreed!!!

Oh, this was a the sweetest email I have received in a long time!! Our house in the UK has been on the Market since September and despite us lowering the asking price drastically, we have had little interest. Our agent assures us it isn't our house but rather the effects of the current economy.

We received an offer on Monday June 28 and agreed on a sale price on June 29!! We are SO relieved to have this burden lifted from us! Normally it takes about 8 weeks to sell a house in the UK. The couple buying the house has all ready sold their house and they intend to pay cash, this should speed up the process by two weeks.

Today, June 30, the Foster's decided to waive all "surveys" in order to speed up the process even more! So, it MAY be possible to close in as little as 4 weeks! (I am trying not to get too excited)

Our agent warned us that the Foster's pulled out of a different house purchase 2 weeks ago so we were cautious. However our agent was contacted by the Foster's lawyer within 15 minutes of a sale agreement so we are encouraged that a final sale will happen.

Today we filled out all the paperwork and sent it back to our lawyer. Now we wait and pray!

A few weeks ago we had a guest pastor and he asked us "Do you need a win in your life?" At first I thought "No, we are good." Then he asked it again adding "is there something in your life that you have no control over and you are completely dependant on the Lord's provision and you could use a win in this area?" Oh ya, that was ME!! So, for the last few weeks I have been continually telling the Lord that I could sure use "A win" by selling our house! It looks as though the game is on and we are headed toward the Championship!! Thank you Lord!!
