Bobbie's Pocono Real Estate and Tidbits Blog: YOU KNOW YOU LOVE A PROPERTY WHEN . . . . . . .

You know you love a property when. . . .  . you see it in pictures on the Internet. . . . . . .  you go out and view the property in person along with numerous others but you just can't get this one property out of your mind.  You start laying out your furniture . . . .  couch here, table there . . . . . .  you begin to picture in your mind how all your favorite knick-knacks and grandma's keepsake will look in the house  . . . . . you think of all the things you want to do to make the home your own. . . . . . . .  you just can't get this property out of your mind.  It is just over the limit of your price range but you want it anyway, you want it bad. . . . . . . . bad. So you start to rationalize that maybe you should stop thinking about this home, maybe you better look around some more. . . . . YOUR GETTING TO WRAPPED UP IN THIS ONE HOUSE!. . . . . . . . . so you go and look at several more homes and stop back into your favorite one more time just to refresh your memory. . . . .  there it is again I GOTTA HAVE THIS HOUSE!. . . . . . . so it's time to go back and talk to friends and relatives and find someone who too is interested in an ideal vacation home, like you . . . .  you know you can convince them why this house is the one for all of you and then you can afford to purchase it and make it your own... . . . so you do it. YOU'VE DONE IT. You've figured out a way with the help of family to this house. . . . . . you make your offer. . . .  you are so excited, you just can't wait to move in and fulfill your dream . . . . THEN. . . . bang! bang! bang! . . . . . .the house appraises for less than sale value. . . . .you just can't justify overpaying for a property in today's market. . . . OH MY GOSH, I'M GOING TO CRY, I LOVE THAT HOUSE!, I WANT THAT HOUSE!. . . . .what am I going to do.. . .  must move on. . . . . . got to find another house that I love as much so I can get over this one. . . . . . you go look at more houses, some have possibilities. . . . . . it's no good. THEY JUST ARE NOT MY HOUSE!. . . . . . I'M GOING BACK AND GET MY HOUSE - I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE DOLLAR VALUE - THAT'S THE HOUSE FOR ME - IT'S ME! - I'LL CHERISH IT FOR YEARS TO COME AND IT WILL PAY ME BACK, PROBABLY THREE FOLD - IT'S WORTH THE PRICE. . . .. . . . that's it.  WE CLOSED!! THE HOUSE IS MINE, ALL MINE.  YOU KNOW YOU LOVE A PROPERTY WHEN  . . . . .. . . . .
