I Know How Stressful Buying and Selling Your Home Can Be
January 18th, 2010 categories: Home Buyers, Home Sellers
For the last few months, I’ve been busy buying, renovating and furnishing a new home.
It took me 3 years to find this house (looking regularly).
It took 4 months to close after we had an accepted contract and after the deal almost fell apart multiple times.
One week after we owned the house, we had a major plumbing issue in the house. Of the backed-up toilet variety.
It’s taken 3 months to renovate it enough so we can move in. In fact, we don’t officially move for another two weeks. I’m literally surrounded by boxes.
I know how stressful and all-consuming buying or selling a home can be. I haven’t written a blog post in three months…just no time.
I know you have doubts about the decisions you’ve made. I know that sometimes you don’t trust everyone involved in the sale/purchase. I know you’re feeling a lot of pressure to be in the new home by a certain date or that you need to be out by a certain date. I know how stressful it is to have people walking through your house day after day and no one seems interested in making an offer.
We’re not done working on our new house yet. Maybe we’ll never be done.
For now, I’m getting back into blogging and hope to share some things I learned along the way.
Yeah it’s really stressful because home for everyone is a place where you find peace and shelter after been out for the whole day and you feel comfortable at your place but when your looking for a new house or selling the current one, everything gets messed up. Shifting in a new home is not always ideal because people take time to adjust to their new home. But anyways it’s a part of life everyone has to see some day and there are some good lessons hidden in it too.
