Can I Breathe Yet?

After coming so close to walking away from the home we put an offer in on last week, the seller's realtor emailed ours to say our price has been accepted along with our closing date and there were 8 minor points they want us to agree to, many of which are non issues. When John read all this to me I had to sit down. Last week was just a roller coaster of emotions and confusion and we were all set to look at new homes, just convinced we had to walk away.
Our realtor, Dave, being the seasoned professional that he is, took us out last night but we just didn't see anything we liked as much as the original. He explained that while we were getting the run around, it mainly had to do with the trustee (idiot lawyer) trying to earn his keep. 

LONG story short, we are going to sign the papers this afternoon, accepting their points, minus one and then hopefully can move forward to the home inspection phase. As soon as we get there, I'll post a pic of the new place. I'm still too nervous to do so now, not wanting to jinx anything!

I just viewed the pics of the inside of the house and it looks like a dream come true for you and John! I can't wait to see it!! The backyard and outside deck view is beautiful! Just to think it will be your house!
