Whenever a home buyer puts in an offer the worst part is yet to come. The waiting, the uncertainty is so rough. Everything goes through your mind.
- What is taking so long?
- Did I bid too low?
- Did I bid too high?
- What is the seller thinking?
- Are they going to accept our offer?
- Should I have put more down?
- Does it normally take so long?
- What is taking so long?

My advice I too keep busy. Visit friends, go to a local festival, see a movie, take the kids out. Enjoy yourself. But keep your cell phone handy so your agent can get a hold of you. Nothing is more frustrating to an agent than getting an answer and then not being able to get ahold of our client for a day.

I am walking in the Tampa 3 day cancer walk in October. Support cancer research by going to www.the3day.org/goto/marianneravary and donate as much as you can. My wife got to live 20 years after finding out she had breast cancer due to advances in cancer treatment. Be part of the team and help me. I would like to be able to give some other "special lady" (like my wife Marianne) more days on this earth. If we can give another lady another night to enjoy with friends, an extra week to laugh & hug her kids, an extra month to love her spouse, or an extra year then our money will be going to a good cause. The grants from the Susan G Komen 3 day walk have been instrumental in cancer research. Help me give more time to somebody else please donate to the 3day walk. Thanks

Absolutely! A watched pot never boils, hahaha!
It's too nerve wracking to hang out waiting . . . the time is gonna pass at the same speed whether you're waiting by the phone or out selling something else! :)
I am so used to waiting it does not bother me...of course buyers sometimes cant stand the wait.
Waiting on banks on a short sale. I'm fine with the waiting....but my buyers....that a different story.
Waiting on an offer or response can seem like time has stopped. I just go about business...
