Oops!


Today after church (and a late lunch) the doorbell rang. We weren't expecting anyone, but CJ answered and it was a family with a real estate agent who were here to see our house. Since we weren't expecting them, we asked if they could come back in 15-30 minutes so we could wake Rachel up, straighten up a bit, and get out of the house. They said sure. But about 5 minutes after they left, the agent called and said they wouldn't be back.


When I checked my cell phone later, the agent had called to schedule the appointment and I just didn't get it. D'oh!


Another agent called to schedule a showing tonight from 7-8, but about an hour later, she cancelled too.


3 people have scheduled to see our house since we put it on the market, but none have actually seen it yet. And today's mix-up was my fault. I'm sure the agent figures there are plenty of houses on the market so we don't have to show ours if we don't want to. Lesson learned: next time someone shows up to see the house (whether we know about it or not) LET THEM IN!


If this house ever sells it will truly be a miracle.

i didn't know you were selling your house! are you moving locally or making a big move?
