Have to vent

Ok. I have to vent or I'm going to go crazy.

We're selling our house and are moving in 2 days. When negotiating the price of our house, we finally compromised with the potential buyers for a price 1K lower than we paid a year ago and 1K lower than the appraisal we had done at that time.

Fast foward to last week. Their appraisal was done and it came back 6K lower then the one we had done a year ago. After much gnashing of teeth with the mortgage company, it seems our appraiser way over-appraised the house and it's not really worth that much after all. So, we were duped I guess. So, down goes the purchase price 5K for the buyers. Great news for them, not so great for us as we'll have to pay in at closing now. That's fine, but we're dropping the 1K we were going to pay for them at closing.

that's what we thought. Nope, their realtor will not let us out of the contributing towards closing costs. On top of that, they want a $375 home warranty.

The next cannon to be shot at us was the inspection. Their inspector found trivial things wrong with the house......electrical stuff mostly, but they want it ALL fixed. Even things that he just recommended be inspected or checked out, they want it done.....at our expense. So, we've fixed what we can ourselves, cause we have no money to pay for all this with after the news that we had to pay in at closing. You'd think they'd be more than happy to do the rest themselves.

Well, they would. But their realtor is INSISTING that we have it fixed or they're backing out.

So, here we sit, getting the raw end of the deal on this. They, however, are being blessed beyond measure. 5K less for the house, help with closing costs, less down payment, new wiring, and much much more.

I'm trying to be content no matter the circumstance, but it sure is hard!
