We're done!
After a day of negotiating, we've decided on all of the terms and we have our new house under contract. It's contingent upon financing of course, so we're waiting to hear back on our loan. We don't expect any problems though (crossing fingers!) We were pre-approved, so hopefully this is just a formality.
Kelly feels great about the terms, which in turn makes me feel great. We even got a 3 month old solid cherry pool table, plus all of the accessories thrown in, plus a brand new dining room set and chairs. All because the current owners didn't want to move them. Not too shabby!
The one surprise, and our best negotiating point by far, was that they really wanted to close *SOON*, so we're closing on December 31st. We will be the owners of TWO homes on December 31st (well, the 29th since the 31st is a Sunday).....holy crap.
That's 3 1/2 weeks away.
Now the true fun begins.
Thanks for all of your comments! I was busy today, so it kept my mind off of the negotiating. THAT was a good thing!

Congrats! It will be nice to have two homes for a while, you won't have to bust your gut getting out of one quickly.
That's true...we don't have the "pressure" of having to move out so quickly.
Thanks for giving me a brighter side! :)
Congrats, and welcome to the world of dual home owners.
