Disappointed - NWR

I got a contract on my house and it was low so I countered and they came back and said they weren't going to go any higher than their offer.  I hate getting my hopes up but I couldn't help it, FI and I have two mortgages right now and we just really can't save or do anything.  Such a let down.

    Wow, FI and I are in the exact same boat as you. His house has been listed for 1.5 YEARS and mine for about 9 months. Honestly, we got an offer on his house a month after we listed it and they low balled us by a lot so we countered and they didn't accept but knowing what we know now, we would have taken that in a second. We have lowered the price so much now we are under what they had offered us over a year ago! It's crazy. As for my house, I bought in 2005 when prices were very high and I can't afford to lose more than a few thousand so we just can't afford to go much lower than list price. It's so frustrating but I TOTALLY feel for you!! Hang in there :)

    so sorry to hear that! Hopefully something good will come around. DH and I will be putting our house on the market early spring of next year and I'm already getting a little anxious. Being a buyer's market, I can only hope we break even. Goodluck!
