NibbIes

I have had some nibbles on the old house. A few inquires. Mostly Realtors fishing for a listing. I had one inquiry for a lease to own, when I responded he turned out to be another Realtor fishing. Sigh.

I have one nibble now I am corresponding with. I told her I needed a pre approval letter that she could afford the cost of the house, before I made the appointment to show it. No reason to bother the tenants with a showing if the shopper isn't really serious or is just rubber necking.  Besides I can confirm credit worthiness if the client is pre approved.

News says closings are down this month. Everything is stagnant. Everyone is probably waiting for the elections in November.  It is nice to see interest at all in the listing. I will keep plugging right along.

Meanwhile, I am going to search for yellow oak to put down in the family room. the odor of pee is excruciating now that I steamed the carpets. I seem to have raised up some serious trouble in trying to clean the carpets. Luckily it is summer, so I can leave the doors open during the day to bring in fresh air.
