I fucking hate the housing market and what it's become. Homes are the equivalent of pork belly futures or stonks.

Last time I put an offer for a house it took two weeks of bidding until I was overbid. Three other bidders continued.

You think that's a long time, wait till you hear how long it takes banks to approve mortgages.

Go sit on the pot. I'm sure they'll call while you're on there.

Hat trick for summoning callbacks - as soon as dinner is almost ready, start your favorite show and have a sit on the can. Works every time.

Sorry to hear that. It took me 8 months starting in 2021 and into early 2022 to get it done. It’s an awful process.

Try not to get too hyped. Unless you are a millionaire the chances are much harder for us common folk.

My dad tried to buy a foreclosed house with no carpet. The inspector said it was unlivable due to that. They wanted my dad to install 1/2

That inspector definitely wasn't licensed.

2/2 carpet in the house in order to approve it. He said I’m not putting carpet in a house I haven’t bought yet. Took 4 months for workaround

Come to CO. Here you can find out in less than 30 seconds that you were outbid 50% by a immigrant from California who is paying cash.

Or by a hedge fund who's going to rent the property at 2x the cost of the mortgage.

Took me 2 years putting in offers to finally buy a place in Boulder County. I'd get outbid before noon of houses being listed.
