I’m glad it worked out for you, it’s great you guys got a house. It’s a definite plus you had a realtor you trusted.

It seems too risky to me but if I needed a house I might feel different. It’s so nuts right now. Houses here are getting multiple offers within an hour of listing and being sold the same day. Californians and Canadians.
