I Need Help From my SR Family!

I need you guys to keep me in your prayers! When XAH left, he refused to pay me alimony, but turned the deed to the house over to me.
As you know, the real estate market has tanked. The house has been on the market for five months with no offers. I've painted the entire inside and dropped the price $50K!
This week, we finally got an offer! If all goes through, I will break even, meaning pay off the mortgage with just enough money left over to pay back what I borrowed for the divorce and to move. At this point, even with no profit, I am thrilled ... the price on houses isn't getting any better, and I'd like to unload the house before I have to pay to heat it or before something goes wrong maintenance wise and I get myself into debt over it.
So, prayers please! Send positive thoughts my way!!!

Good luck, I have my fingers crossed.

(also, it may be a good idea to get a St. Joseph statue and bury him upside down, FACING the house)

people do that here, they say it works......I say anything's possible.

Sending my prayers too. You may not get everything you want, but I find that our needs are always met, and yours will be too.

Hugs

It's so true, Ann. When the house went on the market, I "wanted" to get such and such for it. My HP has shown me the error of my ways - as in putting the wrong things first in my life - and now I find myself content with breaking even. Lessons everywhere!

Home inspection is Monday at 8AM. If all goes well, my broker says we'll be good to go. Keep praying, please!

Guinea, Congratulations.
I hope that all goes well with the sale.
God Bless You. Be gentle on yourself. Take yourself to a meeting.
Selling a house and a divorce are two of life's largest stressors.

I am a real estate appraiser by profession.

I am sending prayers and a boatful of luck.. cuz woman.. this market is no sellers market.. and I DO understand where you are in this.

I would love to sell my shouse and get a smaller one with some land and basrns.. but I don't see this thing turning around until 2009 (if then!!!)! *Sigh*
