The Perfect House?

Anyone involved in the current Cary/Morrisville, North Carolina real estate market knows how insane it is right now. Houses sell in days often with multiple offers. It's a great time to be a seller, but a tough time for a buyer - even if said buyer has the inside scoop because she's a real estate broker. Now lets throw a hole bunch of picky in, and  that buyer (who might be named Cat) has set herself up on a nearly impossible quest.

I had pretty much resigned myself to another year of renting the tree house. Another year of three floors. Have you ever climbed the stairs at St. Peter's Basilica? Well if you haven't and want to, but can't afford a trip to Rome right now, just pop on over to my place and walk up the stairs from the garage floor to the main floor. It's pretty much the same. Oh, and you carry a few bags of groceries up while you're at it, just for bonus fun. 

Stairs in our Town/Tree House

But this morning on my early morning perusing of the new listings, I spotted one in my target area with the golden ticket - two master closets. So we rushed over to take a look. As I walked through, I was overcome with a sense of relief because I believe ladies and gentlemen, we found a house, we can comfortably live the next decade in. That feeling lasted about 3 minutes until the panic of losing out to multiple offers started creeping over me. Grr Argh.

I will let you know, gentle reader, if we were able to beat out all those other desperate house hunters.
