the only downside is if someone else comes along and makes a big offer.
so time is a bit of an issue...
to save time, tell your agent to immediately counter offer any offer by splitting the difference. It indicates a non-aggressive, pure negotiating spirit.
"no hard feelings ... just meet me in the middle"
as soon as she stops giving counter offers ...... take it.
tis all good.

That weighed hard with me... I thought very hard about doing exactly that... but I did not want to waste any more time...
We have been looking for a long time now and our lease is up Aug.31 so we needed to find a place QUICK.... The house just really fit our family perfect. Good location close to work, close to family, still in the KC area..
I Just accepted her counter offer now... our agent is taking the paper work to the sellers agent now. I'm pretty happy with the decision.
Thanks everyone again for their insight
