The Search Continues and the Pandemic Hits

When we last "spoke," we were waiting on the other buyer.  They kept their offer, then read the inspection report, lowered their offer slightly, but said they would fix everything.  We didn't have to fix a thing.  We thought it over and then said yeah, okay, let's do it.  I felt a little awkward canceling the mold mitigation (I just wanted it gone), but such is life.  So here it was the end of February and we finally had an offer that seemed like it might actually stick.  Unfortunatetly for us, the house we had offered on and loved in December was now sold.  At that moment there was not much on the market, but within a couple of weeks we started looking at houses again.  Re:  one of them, my realtor emailed me early afternoon about one that came on the market that day.  We went that evening (after work), made a good offer (as in offer asking price) that evening as did I think four other people and our offer was not accepted.  That one hurt, but the search continued...We looked at a few places, but none we liked enough to offer on and then suddenly, everything shut down.  We were supposed to go see a house the day after everything was due to shut down, but we managed to get in a day early and made an offer.  No luck!  And now we weren't sure what was going to happen.  There was some confusion re: whether or not realtors were essential and could continue to show houses so the stress (and waiting) continued...
