Counter offer accepted!

We found out around 6:30 last night that the seller made a counter offer. The conditions stayed the same, but she basically split the difference between what the house was listed at and what we offered. I was completely unsurprised!

Amy emailed me the counter offer and Corrine and I discussed it, stressed about it, contemplated it, stressed about it some more, argued about it, gave up on it, contemplated it, celebrated it, worried about it, then after 1 1/2 to 2 hours, we accepted it. We thought about countering, but due to the amount of people that seemed to be out looking at houses, we didn't want to chance the seller getting a better offer.

This morning I made it official by turning in the signed paperwork to Amy's office. We're under contract now. Barring any unforeseen catastrophes, we should have a house before the end of February. Not a townhouse, but a house-house! Woohoo!
