I have mixed feelings about this oil. Firstly it is difficult to use - you have to place in a bowl of hot water to melt into an oil consistency otherwise it is very difficult to get anything out. Second it made me itch - I mainly focused this oil on my roofs however it still made my scalp itch. Not sure if I am allergic to something in it but there was no rash. Just the itching that happened prior to application. I do feel that this oil made my hair look healthier after application and washing. However I was not prepared for the colour change it caused. I have dark brown (nearly black) hair so it was very subtle. In the light my hair started to look golden. It wasnt a bad change but it still was a change of colour so I would be wary of this oil if I had lighter hair. Contains henna, which explains the colour change. I don't think this oil made a significant enough improvement to my hair to warrant a repurchase.

This made my scalp break out in a bright red rash, and the rash lasted for about a week. Needless to say, I will not use this product again. However, it did leave my hair soft and shiny. I will just use plain coconut oil now for my deep conditioning needs. Also, be aware that since this contains coconut oil, it will solidify in cooler weather which will make it difficult to get the product out of the bottle.

Thanks to everyone who recommende this product. My hair was so dry, frizzy and flyaway before I read the product reviews. I live in a hot, humid climate where many beauty products are unavailable and my naturally curly hair has been in terrible condition. Vatika is a common brand here but I didn't try it because so many of the cheap, lesser known brands available really aren't very good.
The result has been truly amazing! My hair is soft, shiny, not frizzy and I can even shake my hair and it falls back into place. It also works extremely well as a nail and skin oil. And, as many have commented, the price is a bargain.
One note: I tried Vatika Almond, Coconut, Sesame Oil first since that was the one I could find easily. I later tried the Coconut Oil in the opaque bottle. It seemed to make my hair oily and didn't penetrate the hair shaft. So different hair types may respond to different formulations...Also, for some reason, the coconut seems to congeal in the bottle and is almost impossible to use without warming the bottle (but this may not be a problem with the clear liquid oil version.)

I love it makes my curly hair is so soft. ı have extremely dry hair and I have noticed that my hair is growing faster. the smell is strong but not unbearable! I would buy it again!
I felt compelled to write a review for this hair oil. I have very curly 3a hair - lots of it, but fine and it is very long at the moment. In an absolute moment of madness, after not bleaching my hair for over 6 years, I decided to bleach the ends white blonde so that I could get a very unnatural purple added. This absolutely fried my hair, (my hair is naturally black) and as a result DAMAGED MY BEAUTIFUL CURLS! They had fallen out, so the top of my hair was beautiful, and the ends looked like stringy straight dying bleached worms. I cried, a lot, for about a month. And then my mother reminded me of the absolute miracle that is Vatika Hair Oil. Now, I'm Indian, so using Vatika was something I have been grown up to use - at the very least once a week. But obviously, it has it's downsides. As a child I was never completely able to wash the product out of my hair, it used to 'over-proteinise' my hair when I was younger as well, leaving it crunchy and matted. It smelled strange. Also my mum (bless her, she did try) had no clue about how to look after my hair, as her hair is as straight as a poker. So... when I was younger, she used to apply the oil into my hair without brushing it, which meant when it was time to wash it out, I ended up looking like Ronald McDonald who had got electrocuted by a hairdryer. Anyway, For all of those reasons, I stopped using it. So I was reluctant to give it another go, but I had given up with Kerastase and other 'Western' hair products because they just weren't doing enough for my hair. So I bought a bottle of Vatika, brushed my hair, and put the oil on. My hair literally drank the stuff - I used a quarter of the bottle in one sitting. I put a towel over my pillow and left it in over night, double shampooed and used my fail-safe mane n tail deep moisturising conditioner the next day, along with my redken fresh curls curl refiner and my redken ringlet 07 curl perfector, diffused, and voila! My hair is back to what it used to be. Perfect, soft, curly, floppy mess a-la Nicole Kidman. I guess I needed a serious dose of protein to replace what the bleach had taken out. Seriously, if you have curly hair that has been bleached, PLEASE try this. It's as cheap as chips, it can be bought on Amazon, and honestly, it really really really works if you have damaged hair that has lost it's curl. I plan to use it as a pre-poo every time now - as long as I continue to bleach my hair.

I have four bottles of The vatika oil... so I'm not going to say I love VATIKA Oil. All I can say is Shea Moisture Resorative on damp hair + Vatika Oil + Curl Enhancing Smoothie. Makes the perfect 3c 4b hair pop. / * - * \

But this stuff really smoothes hair and gets the frizz to behave, the only downfall is the smell that lingers long after you wash your hair and it is kinda....funky. Anyway, I've been alternating with this and Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan oil for even more benefits and my hair has never been stronger, smoother or healthier! I'm so happy with these products!
This has a very strange smell, which I think is due to the neem and amla. It kinda smells like lemons and coconuts, but not really, and the longer you leave it on your hair, the worse it gets! It also made my scalp itchy so I stopped using it. Im now using Pro Naturals Moroccan Argan oil instead and its very light and the smell is very subtle. I love it and my hair is really improving!
I LOVE this stuff!!! I have been "natural" for almost 2 years and have been using coconut oil since my BC in July 2010. I discovered this when my best friend went to the Dubai and she sent me a bottle. My hair is sooooooo hydrated with this and it has a nice light coconut and citrus smell. I usually put it in my hair at night when I do my "pebbles" (high pont tail) and put my satin bonnet over it so that it can penatrate into my hair at night. Will repurchase over and over again:-)
This review is for the Vatika Enriched Coconut Oil. I purchased this at a Bangladeshi grocery store near my house but you can order it online for about 4 bucks and some change. I used this is a pre-shampoo treatment and leave it in overnight. I have fine hair but have a lot of it and it is wavy and sometimes prone to dryness on occasion. Using this oil from mid shaft down and leaving it in overnight then shampooing it out in the morning leaves my hair very soft and more manageable. The nice thing about coconut oil is that there are studies that have documented that it is one of the few hair oils that can actually penetrate the shaft of the hair and condition it, unlike mineral oil which sits on the surface of the hair. Coconut oil can help prevent protein loss that tends to occur from frequent washing with shampoos with detergents. Also the amla and henna add a nice gloss to the hair.

This beautifully designed master bedroom by Candice Olson features a TV housed in custom made cabinetry. If I recall correctly, from watching the episode on this bedroom, doors pull out to hide the TV. This is the perfect design solution to conceal a TV's presence when not in use.
No concealing of the TV is happening in this bedroom, which features a modern aesthetic and a muted color palette of brown, green and yellow. In fact, most of the examples I found for this Ideabook make little effort to hide the TV screen. It is a trend that most certainly has to do with the prevalence of today's flat screen units. Prior to beginning the redo of my master bedroom, there was an ancient "old school" TV hidden behind the doors of an armoire, for obvious reasons!
Here the TV placed above the fireplace is not a prominent feature of the design. This aspect of the room probably has more to do with the stunning view out the wall of windows than with anything else.
Look closely at the approach taken in this master bedroom...
Mrs. Limestone made a delightful and ironic design decision when installing a TV above the mantel in her master bedroom. Placing a very ornate frame around the screen pokes fun at and embraces the presence of a TV.
I'm drawn to the contrasts in this design. A carved sleigh bed faces a sleek TV, which is hung on a wall of rough wooden planks. This juxtaposition of new and old is continued with exposed brick and a modern barn door. It seems only natural a TV would be part of this mix.
No question what the feature of this room is. Have you seen a larger TV screen placed in a bedroom? It is surrounded by beautiful and simple cabinetry and shelving, I would just like to see the space softened by a few accessories.
I just had to smile when I came across this bedroom. In a nearly all white bedroom, such a tiny white TV fits right in and nearly disappears. The structure around the unit puzzled me until I studied the image closer. Ah ha! I do believe the box around the TV, with its off-centered top, lowers into the cabinetry to conceal the unit! Very clever...
This ultra modern bedroom of white and black and sleek surfaces houses a TV which fades seamlessly into the design. This effect is a result of the graphic black line running the length of the cabinetry.
A beautiful custom built dresser and shelves filling the wall opposite the bed also makes room to hang a TV screen. This is an approach that helps integrate a sleek TV into a traditional room.
Another stunning view! I would most certainly have a hard time focusing on any show being played on the TV in this space.
The large dark TV screen mounted above the fireplace blends right into this bedroom, balanced by the tall dark headboard and dramatic colors on the chairs and ottoman. The graphic Greek key design around the tray ceiling perfectly compliments the room design.

"Does not work with Vista Home Premium / Firefox / Flash"
It's a small download and quick install
It doesn't mute flash on my system: Windows Vista Home Premium / Firefox 3.6.6 / Flash 10.1
The program needs an update, I used to have it on my old XP system and it worked fine but sadly not any more....
At the present time (July 2010) the FlashMute Addon for Firefox does not work with the current Issue of Firefox/Flash
The only option I can find to mute flash in FF is the hack of adding a blank text file in to the Firefox program folder (normally C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox) and re-naming it to 'msacm32.dll' but this mutes ALL flash (including YouTube etc.) and you need to re-name or delete the file and re-start Firefox each time you want to un-mute.
Really Adobe needs to address this and add a universal Mute function to Flash

One other thing you can do which does not require re-starting Firefox and is much simpler:
In Vista:
Right click the speaker icon in the system tray and select 'Open Volume Mixer' click the mute button under 'Firefox Plugin Container"

Linksys Wireless-N Gigabit Router WRT310N
At a Glance
(1 items)
Linksys by Cisco Wireless-N Gigabit Router WRT310N
Sleek and speedy, this Linksys is a good choice for a small business that wants 2.4-GHz and gigabit support but doesn't need the multimedia-friendlier 5-Hz option. Has deep routing features.
The Linksys Wireless-N Gigabit Router WRT310N outclassed the Netgear RangeMax Next Wireless-N Gigabit Router WNR3500 in close-range tests, averaging 61 mbps in the same room as the client, versus the Netgear's 48 mbps. It also performed well at long range (about 60 feet, through several walls and appliances), though it wasn't quite as fast as the Netgear.
In both short- and long-range performance, the Linksys single-band router did much better than such budget routers as the Belkin N Wireless Router F5D8233-4 v3 and the D-Link Wireless N Router DIR-615 vB2. Its superiority over the low-end routers is probably due to its having an extra antenna, which provides more spatial diversity. We experienced good performance throughout our 1400-square-foot house, obviating the need to run a second access point to cover dead spots. This is fortunate, since, unlike the Netgear, the Linksys doesn't support wireless range extension.
The WRT310N's design is sleek (the antennas are internal), and its performance proves that you don't need rabbit-ear antennas to achieve good range.
The Web utility offers many deep routing features. For example, while most routers offer WMM/QoS (for prioritizing video or VoIP traffic), the Linksys WRT310N allows you to customize application priorities: You can set gaming or streaming media to trump all else, or you can ensure that BitTorrent doesn't mess up your VoIP phone calls.
Web filtering is another area where the Linksys excels. You can stop proxies, Java, ActiveX, and cookies at the router, which should ward off most Trojan horses and spyware.
We wish, though, that

And The Poor Get Poorer: The Economics Of Higher Global Temperatures
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Climate change presents poor nations with an unfortunate paradox: Though they missed out on the riches of the fossil fuel era, they appear doomed to suffer the worst of its consequences. Many experts predict climate change will drag down national income, but how and where such effects may be felt has been anyone's guess until recently. Now research suggests that heat may hinder growth in poor nations while leaving wealthy ones relatively untouched. High temperatures are sometimes blamed, fairly or not, for the lack of development in many poor nations. But since climate change will almost certainly make them hotter, the issue has taken on new importance.

WASHINGTON, June 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The Center for Laser Surgery, Washington, DC has announced the availability of Dysport, abobotulinum toxin-A. Dysport, recently FDA approved, is the first cosmetic neurotoxin available alongside the widely used BOTOX(R) Cosmetic (botulinum toxin-A).
The Center for Laser Surgery was principal investigator of the FDA Stage III Clinical Trials for Dysport. As Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia's largest and most experienced Botox practice, the center was honored to be the sole Dysport investigator in DC.
Dysport is a simple, effective, non-surgical treatment that works by relaxing facial muscles, thereby reducing and smoothing away frown-lines and wrinkles. Dysport, like Botox, is a protein extracted from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. Dysport has been available in Europe, Asia and South America for over 10 years. Dysport is manufactured by Ipsen Pharmaceuticals (FRA) and distributed in the United States by Medicis, manufacturer of the Restylane dermal filler.
Many cosmetic physicians outside the U.S. who have used Dysport report faster action and greater longevity for Dysport when compared to Botox. In most unbiased neurological studies for the treatment of movement disorders, Dysport has provided equal or greater efficacy when used in a 2.5 to 4:1 ratio to Botox. In a double-blinded randomized crossover study in cervical dystonia (the most common use of neurotoxins in the world), results showed Dysport to be more effective than Botox with a similar safety and side effect profile when used in a 3:1 dose relationship.
In 2006, Dr. Robert M. Adrian, founder of the Center for Laser Surgery, sponsored and fully funded a 24-patient double blinded comparative study of Dysport and Botox in the treatment of forehead

Having grown up in the cold, rainy and often snowy climes of the United Kingdom, it often comes as a shock to most when I announce I learnt the art of snowboarding here in the desert.
Life & Style | Leisure
Courses you would love to be part of
From pottery to pole fitness, and ice-skating to cake baking, there are courses this summer that can make you the master of new crafts
- Image Credit: Alastair Muir / Rex Features
- Mandatory Credit: Photo by Alastair Muir / Rex Features (508340a) Colette Morrow 'DRALION' BY CIRQUE DU SOLEIL AT THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL, LONDON, BRITAIN - 05 JAN 2005
It shouldn't. Dubai is a haven of activity and each year new and exciting things pop up, offering residents and visitors countless options for trying something new.
If you thought Dubai was only about lavish brunches and nights out, think again. For those willing to turn their hand (and brain) to a new skill, sport, activity, the options are endless.
What: De-stress painting
Why learn: Because who even needs to question how throwing paint at a wall couldn't be more fun. Plus, you have the added bonus of being able to call it art instead of vandalism. People do sports to de-stress, but there are more ways to get rid of daily strains and burdens. The name of the game is to simply make a mess. No artistic skills necessary.
Where: DUCTAC, Mall of the Emirates
When: Sunday 4-6pm and from 7-9pm
Cost: Dh250 for four consecutive sessions plus and additional Dh20 for materials
In 60 minutes: Expect to learn about colour and texture but mostly about how to let yourself go. Surprisingly, making a mess doesn't come naturally to all.
In a fortnight: Learn more about the expression of what you are creating from a personal perspective and just how to interpret it all.
Call: Martina Dresler on 050 6443703 or 04 341 4777 extension 323.
What: Pole dancing
Why learn: Vertical Flex or Pole dancing has been taking the world by storm. Hailed as the new aerobics, it improves muscle posture and will give you killer abs. Classes are tailored for newcomers with a view to mastering the basics before incorporating routines to music.
Where: Cello Music & Ballet Centre, Level 1, Al Fattan Towers, JBR
When: Individual classes and set courses take place throughout the week
Cost: Dh90 per single class or Dh850 for a package of 10.
In 60 min: Expect to build your confidence, upper body strength and have some fun. It involves dancing with specially made poles so you'll get used to those in the first session.
In a fortnight: You will see vast improvements in your body strength and flexibility and will have picked up a combination of moves both on and off the pole. Steps from other dance styles such as jazz, modern and hip hop will have been mastered.
Call: 04 399 5452 or visit www.cellodubai.com
What: Aerial silk
Why learn: Aerial Silks, Tissu or Fabric are two long pieces of soft fabric that hang from a single point, which an artist uses to create dance routines. You will increase your strength, grace and flexibility, move your body into amazing poses and learn exciting drops and slides in later stages. Appropriate for all and no previous experience required.
Where: The Fridge, Al Quoz, Dubai
When: The next round of courses begin in mid August and workshops take place on a weekly basis.
Cost: Dh100 for the introductory session, Dh180 per workshop and Dh800 for a package.
In 60 min: The first session includes a warm up, strength training, focusing on core and lower abs, conditioning tips and stretching. You will learn a bit about climbing, foot locks, poses, turns and tricks from the ground level only.
In a fortnight: As you increase your strength and stamina while learning body control, balance and flexibility. More advanced students will learn more difficult skills, choreography and artistry, while hanging in the fabric.
Call: Mario on 050 5362805 or 04 3477793
What: Pottery

DISH, TX -- DISH mayor Calvin Tillman and affected Wise County property owner Tim Ruggiero will be touring the Marcellus Shale discussing ShaleTest.org, a non-profit environmental testing organization co-founded by the two.
Last fall the formation of ShaleTest was announced in Fort Worth. Since the announcement, the ShaleTest Board of Directors have been working on building the non-profit in an effort to to provide environmental testing to lower income families. DISH mayor Calvin Tillman says that "this will be my fourth trip to the Marcellus Shale and it will be great to announce ShaleTest to that area, it is our goal to have a permanent presence in this region soon ".
Co-Founder Tim Ruggiero says "I have seen first hand the damage caused by drillers motivated more by profit than any attempt at being a Good Neighbor. Some drillers are reckless, cut corners and simply do not follow the law. Self-regulation and self-reporting are not working. Where there is no responsibility, there is no accountability. We need to drill, and we need the energy-but it needs to be done responsibly, with respect to people and their private property. I am excited to join Mayor Tillman on the 2011 Truth Tour on the Marcellus Shale."

26 Things We Learned From the 'Night of the Living Dead' Commentary
Commentary Commentary By Jeremy Kirk on October 11, 2012 | Comments (2)October continues, and we're moving to our next batch of favorite on-screen monsters. This week we're talking about zombies and all the glorious ways George Romero changed that sub-genre forever. Originally an urban legend in Voodoo culture, the term "zombie" was forever married to an image of mobs of the undead searching for flesh to sink their rotting teeth into. It's a friendly image, no doubt. We've already turned our eardrums over what Romero had to say on the commentary track for Dawn of the Dead, the sequel to this groundbreaking classic, but now we're going back to the source. This time around, Romero has brought along two members of the cast and his co-writer, John Russo, so the conversation should be a bit livelier than creatures they all had a hand in creating on screen. So here we go, all 26 things we learned from the commentary track for Night of the Living Dead.
33 Things We Learned From the 'Princess Bride' Commentary Tracks
Commentary Commentary By Nathan Adams on March 8, 2012 | Comments (4)When Jeremy said he needed someone to fill in on Commentary Commentary so that he could focus his energies primarily on South by Southwesting, I simply replied, "As you wish." But then I was left with a conundrum. What movie should I watch the commentary track for? After rifling through my DVD collection I ended up with a handful of possibilities, and I wound up choosing The Princess Bride for one reason: when else would I ever listen to the commentary tracks on this movie, if not now? The Princess Bride is so much fun, such a whimsical experience, that if you're going to put the DVD on, you want to watch the movie. You don't want to hear some old guy rambling over all of the classic lines. Consequently, this thing has been sitting on my shelf essentially since DVDs began, and I still haven't listened to either the Rob Reiner or the William Goldman commentaries. So, here we go, I'll take the hit and give them a listen, pick out all the interesting stuff, and you can go about your usual business of properly soaking in all the action, adventure, and romance the next time you need to get your Princess Bride fix.

hi all, it's been a month or three since i've been here, thought i'd post an update. we've shown the house 7 times since march first and the very first people who saw it loved it and made a full price offer--if we could swing owner financing, which isn't possible. today we have a couple and their agent coming back for a second look with grandpa, as we can offer a studio apt in the barn so he can be on site and in his own private space. st joseph is still buried and i've written a thank you and goodbye letter to the house. anything else i can do to help these folks want to live here? oh, and we are not buying a new home, we are going to live at camp for the summer, spend a few months in sicily (free family apt!!) and maybe travel the rest of the year in a spiffy rv.exploring the usa before we decide what to do when we grow up, lol. |

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! You needed a specific buyer to appreciate your special property and it sounds as if you may have it. I am sure it makes you happy to know that it will be purchased by somebody who will appreciate it. In other news, how would you feel about adopting a 40 year old? I'm potty trained and sleep through the night. I have learned how to share my toys and can be counted on to help with small chores. |

. so the potential buyers are asking for an independent appraisal, as they feel our home will appraise for less than our asking price. i'm told they don't want to insult us with a low offer so the appraisal should eliminate that issue. also the buyers agent told me they have 50% to put down and need to finance 50%. seems to me that if they they put down 50% and apply for the loan of the remaining 50%, then the appraisal can't help but be way more than necessary. please help me understand how this works and what comes next? |
If they have 50% to put down, they really have a lot of room to cover any issues with a low appraisal (unless it comes in 50% low of course). They just end up dipping into their down payment amount to cover the appraisal difference. So it sounds to me like they have a budgeted monthly payment in mind and what they are really trying to do is hit that and not exceed it. If they end up putting some of their down payment into the note to buy down the appraisal shortfall, then their LTV figure differs and their actual loan amount increases assuming all funds remain static. So honestly, it sounds to me like they want the independent (not lender) appraisal to pre-negotiate the contract price. Because it really doesn't matter what their indie appraisal says in this situation...its the lenders appraisal that matters for the note. But honestly, at 50% down, some lenders will 'stretch' their appraisal figures to make it work. I've seen this happen countless times, even post-meltdown. No harm in letting them do this, but just be prepared that they are likely using this to "justify" their offer price....and more than likely, its going to be less than your asking price (considerably less is my guess). Your amenities on the property are just that; amenities. Most appraisers won't give you measurable (if any) financial consideration credit for those, but you should stick by your convictions that they make the property more valuable and justify your asking price. |
On a related note....any cool history on the house? That old and it must have some character/background worth sharing! |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Tue, May 7, 13 at 8:41
the history is a bit neat i think. it started life as a logging camp and was a family home by the early part of last century. the folks who lived there in the forties and fifties still live in town, some were foster kids who lived in the outbuildings which are now homes on their own parcels. the acreage used to be cleared for sheep and cows but is now overgrown and almost ready to be logged--hey i should mention that! when we did some work in the book we found a ton of old iron horse shoes and bits and buckles, that was cool. and as it turns out the brook is perfect for a micro hydro and the upper fields well situated for a solar panel field---so the property is for sure unique! |
Have you had an appraisal done yourself? I'm guessing depending on the appraiser that the value can vary widely with your type of property. Might not be a bad idea to have one done yourself as well to compare to what they come up with as well as any future buyers. Obviously the uniqueness will factor in to the price and it is beautiful. Just have to negotiate what it is worth. Although I do know appraisals will take into account some of those features too. I would start also adding up the value of the wood that could be logged. |

whew, what a day it was yesterday! we have arrived at a number everyone can live with i think, though they need the appraisal and home inspection done of course. i'm a bit worried about signing a contract which takes my house off the market while they get the appraisal and inspection. is there a way to structure this so they i can show the house and perhaps get a backup offer in case theirs doesn't happen? i know they won't want to risk losing their money into appraisal and inspection, but i have a mazillion more to lose if they walk away and i've missed another buyer in the meantime. i could offer to cover the costs of the appraisal and inspection if someone offers me more for the house? lol, i'm new at this so if it's crazy talk be gentle, k? |
I am not certain if you have an agent or are FSBO. RE practices vary a lot. You need to ask your agent how your listing will appear in the MLS once it's under contract. That will determine whether it continues to be shown. I've not heard of contracts which prohibit you from continuing to show the house. It remains your property until it is sold. Is there anything in the contract which requires you to not show it? If that's the case, I would not agree to that language. That said, I rarely showed houses that were listed as "pending." That told me the contract only had normal contingencies such as inspections and appraisals. If it was a special place, such as yours, I might call up the listing agent to see where in the process the sale was. No inspection yet, I would show it. If a house showed up as pending-continue to show with a number after it, that told me that the buyer needed to sell a house first. I never hesitated to show those houses as chances were good my buyer could bump out some one that needed to sell a house. Only your agent can answer this question as there is a lot of variation in how a MLS categorizes the status of a listing. If you're FSBO, don't sign a contract that doesn't permit you to continue to market the property. |
- Posted by mamattorney (My Page) on Thu, May 9, 13 at 14:14
Yes, here the status changes from "active" to "contingent". Next to the words "contingent" it says either "inspection/attorney approval" "buyers have house to sell", "short sale" or "other contingency". There's another status called "pending". Sometimes, the listings switch from contingent to pending, but mostly they switch from contingent to sold. I presume that you can still show any house with a contingency, but not one deemed pending. My thought is - if they have an out (inspection), you should be able to keep trying to sell it until that is removed. |
- Posted by ncrealestateguy (My Page) on Thu, May 9, 13 at 20:54
Falling, No matter what status it changes to, more than likely the showings will stop. Buyers that are ready, able and willing to purchase do not want to be # 2 in line. And agents do not like spending time on a deal not likely to happen. I hope that was gentle enough. Congrats on your contract! |
- Posted by lnersesian (My Page) on Fri, May 10, 13 at 10:34
I'm about an hour away from you and think the house and property are awesome! I've seen a lot of houses listed as 'active with contract' up here, which to me indicates that they are still showing the house...but as a buyer (which we are) I'd be hesitant to go look at something under contract. Good luck with everything! |
- Posted by littleprincess (My Page) on Fri, May 10, 13 at 13:31
When we were looking, I passed right by Pending properties. Technically, we could have looked. But I didn't want to bump someone else. I was willing to find something that was currently open and/or wait for the property to be clear again. I didn't want to be part of a bidding war either. |
Ask your agent to put "accepting back-up offers" in the Realtor comments. That lets other agents know that the pending contract has contigencies that might fall through, and hopefully they will show it. Good luck! |
- Posted by nosoccermom (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 9:19
What exactly are the contingencies with respect to appraisal and inspection? Also, what's the time frame? |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 9:27
well hi all, i am back to breathe for a moment! lessee, the contingencies are thus--the house has to appraise for the selling price, or they can back out. it's going to be close i think--but they really want it so i think it will be ok. they can also back out if the inspector finds over 5000 worth of repairs needed--seriously doubt that will happen. they asked us to move the dates up a week so inspection in tow days on monday, lending commitment decision on the 14th of june and close on the 21st. i have five weeks to empty apprx 4000 sq ft of 24 years worth of living and keeping livestock here. we're moving into our rv and plan to travel the countryside, so we're basically walking away from it all------winter clothes are first on the list to go, lol! i'm working hard at not being completely and totally overwhelmed!!!!!!!!!!! |
- Posted by barbcollins (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 11:43
"we're moving into our rv and plan to travel the countryside, so we're basically walking away from it all------" Wow that's what my husband wants to do, but I don't know what we would do with family heirloom furniture, pictures, etc. |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 11:48
it's tough for sure walking away from the things which made my home 'mine'. but--they are just things and what doesn't get rehomed to loved ones will be sold or donated. we will have a small storage unit, i plan to build one on my rental property for myself. the more i read, the more i see that we're joining a growing trend of people with h.o.w.---homes on wheels. |
- Posted by mamattorney (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 13:21
So exciting! I hope it appraises out! What an exciting change of lifestyle; I admire people who can "walk away from it all" and take on a new challenge. Good Luck! |
- Posted by dreamgarden (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 13:25
Is the property really on 37 acres? If so, it sounds like it would be a great place to live off the grid! Something that wouldn't be lost on Doomsday preppers! ;) "oh, and we are not buying a new home, we are going to live at camp for the summer, spend a few months in sicily (free family apt!!) and maybe travel the rest of the year in a spiffy rv.exploring the usa before we decide what to do when we grow up, lol. cool, huh?!!" My goodness, what a great adventure to look forward to! Hope you get your house sold soon, so you can get started on your footloose and fancy free new life! |
- Posted by fallingwaters (My Page) on Sat, May 11, 13 at 18:34
it's perfectly situated for of grid---micro hydro site is literally 100 ft from the house. and the upper field with it's southern exposure would suit an array of solar panels quite nicely. meanwhile i can't wait for july first and it's all done and we're picking out our new (to us) fifth wheel to live in. |
